light dome elevation < 30°, 96 of 128 lights

anise gallery

dialog between artwork and architecture
virtual playground kids orientated

virtualrealism
rebuild the space your are in, in VR aka the gallery.
findings:
Old people like VR
it is hard to sell artworks (in virtual and real)
time limits to the experience are important
vr of famous artists work in a famous gallery is more popular

my learning:
location and size does still matter in nature
i should put anise gallery on my list of where to go venues in London

storytelling(-neg influence) and restricting(fixed viewpoint) viewers freedom are potent
create a meditative experience

Being with media - encountering image in physical space - kenneth feinstein

the media now becomes an environment
from window to spaces (metaphor)
Meaning has been derived from the metaphysical remove.
This meaning is OTHER TO US allowing us to pass judgement.

The meaning of this otherness has changed over time.

Otherness & being with

-Levinas ontology places within a context
-Flusser sees our relationship to the apperatus as one of play
(interaction with the devices and others ...)

media art and a drive towards the experiential

- experience over the contemplated image
- Kircher's Metaphor Machine (conversational in nature) - still talking at us
- Nam Yun Paik experiential art (Happenings, New wave cinema, interaction and gaming)
- team lab the result is a conversational

Post Box Cinema ...
why?
the post box is the symbol of modern nation-state
is is symbol of modernism

a creation of the modern nation

the video image is a reference to German Romantic painting
it speaks of landscape as nostalgia for a false past
the combination speaks of an ideology of the financial sector as the new aristocrats

people relate to it because of the familiarity
they want to use it as an post box

... as Being-with object
