Immersive Art + Architecture + Machine Vision
What happens when you combine art + architecture together with machine
vision? Can an immersive experience be ethereal on the one hand, but a
little ominous on the other? For his latest installation, Dr. Woohoo
has created a reactive conceptual space that defies the laws of
gravity, embraces the impossible in terms of how a building can be
sculpted that includes a cast of surprises.
About The Immersives
The Immersives seamlessly merge art + design + architecture +
technology together to create immersive experiences for art,museum and
commercial installations.
As the lead of a technologically innovative consortium of New Mexico
based small businesses, The Immersives proposal for anEnhanced Machine
Vision Project has been selected as one of the recipients of the 2011
New Mexico Small Business Assistance Leveraged Program. Working
closely with Sandia National Laboratories Augmented Reality and
Computer Vision Labs, The Immersives will be working with: Venture
Realty Group; Lumenscapes for Dome integration; Unterseher Holography
Consulting for Holography integration; and Klein AI for Artificial
Intelligence integration.
The installation at the Santa Fe Complex will be a sneak peak of an
early proto-type hinting at what is possible when you combine Art +
Architecture + Machine Vision together.
About the Santa Fe Complex
The Santa Fe Complex draws on the creativity of scientists,
technologists, and artists to solve complex problems to meet business,
government, and social needs. Combining expertise across disciplines,
the Complex has helped the City of Santa Fe model escape routes for
its citizens in the event of forest fires, the city of Venice plan
canal traffic to minimize the wakes that damage the city’s
architecture, and the San Francisco Department of Public Health
identify the movement of troubled youths through their social services
network.
The mission of the Complex is to create a collaborative workspace that
fosters applied complexity science through interdisciplinary
education, outreach, and development of innovative technologies to
address real-world problems, enable social cooperation, and create
economic opportunities.
The Complex is located in Santa Fe, New Mexico, a renowned center of
research in complexity science, an interdisciplinary approach to
solving complex problems. Santa Fe has also long been famous as a
center for the traditional arts and is now becoming a hotbed of
innovative forms of artistic expression resulting from the crossover
between art and technology.
