"Delicate Boundaries is an interactive installation where human touch can dissolve the barrier of the computer screen. Using the body as a means of exchange, the system explores the subtle boundaries that exist between foreign systems and what it might mean to cross them. Lifelike digital animations swarm out of their virtual confinement onto the skin of a hand or arm when it makes contact with a computer screen creating an imaginative world where our bodies are a landscape for digital life to explore."
This is one of the craziest things I've seen in quite a while. (After the virtual keyboard -VKB-, which should be interesting) In one of the recent readings for this class we read about new technology and how it changes art -- for instance 3D printing. **see Robert Lazzarini** The idea of breaking down the fourth wall and being interactive with the screen is crazy. I'm not sure how it's set up exactly, to be interactive whilst being in our personal space, but it's cool nevertheless. The virtual keyboard has the same sort of feel - the idea of being interactive without a physical matter that you are using. Lasers, projections, and other forms of technology are coming into our "physical" world and confusing the hell out of me. How does this work? Anyone?? ANYONE?
