Fragmented

Graduation project for my Master of Arts: Design for Digital Cultures course.

Fragmented is an interactive installation in which the spectator becomes the screen. When entering the installation you silhouette is detected by a Kinect camera. Images set in a database of avatars are continually being projected on your silhouette. Surrounded by walls of mirrors you seem to be floating in an infinite space. You become a virtual body, a body in process, a pastiche and copy of many different identities and a surface appearance in which the original you seems to dissappear. Fragmented asks the question in what ways our identities are being contructed by the media.

Supported by Master thesis: Representation of a representation: Vertaalslagen van de fragmentatie(r)evolutie (in Dutch with a summary in English) Rated as very good. Commented on as "exemplary" and "brilliant".
