2x Channel HD Video Installation; 10m 52s

2016

Upper_Sea is an immersive video installation envisioning a world where human consciousness has transferred into digital technology. Pondering a relationship between electronics and rare earth metals, the video's narrator suggests that the digital media space is, in fact, an experience inside geological matter. The film comprises various moving image processes: CGI animation, computer vision algorithms, early cinema special effect techniques, and live-action footage, including participants following performance scores with sculptural elements.
