VIDEO EXHIBITION
MAELSTROM: Gazes into the digital abyss
Sean Pickersgill, University of South Australia, Adelaide, RMIT PhD in Architecture candidate
Gregory More, RMIT Interior Design Lecturer, SIAL Research Fellow
John Power, RMIT Animation and Interactive Media (AIM)
Kaurna Gallery, 5th - 14th July, 2006, Adelaide.
The work presented in Maelstrom collectively identifies and presents an exploration of digital space as a form of philosophical topology, a lens and a window onto an unknown world. The possibilities within the digital field have not yet begun to be understood in terms of the ontology of presence. The work of the three artists seeks to give substance to some of the opportunities available within the immersive context of the first-person environment. Disruptions of form, aberrations of physics and geometry all present the fact that we can exist in these worlds within another gravitational logic.
