approach to

A theoretical framework ?
The Enactive view of Perception
“To localize an object simply means to represent to oneself the
movements that would be necessary to reach it”
H. Poincare
“Seeing is a way of acting”
J.K O’Regan and A. Noe

I’d like to interpret “media augmentation of space” in this light:
as mediatedways of actingin/on it
traditional mediated
Enough theory!
Some examples from my own work
Mobile display surfaces with 3d “affordances“
Volume
Slicing
Display
(2006)
Meta-Walls:
interactive
architecture?
“City Elephant” at Okamura Showroom in collaboration with artist/architect Shin Egashira
(2007)
the Khronos Projector
mobile... and deformable?
(2004)

DIS-CHORDE
(in collaboration with Daito Manabe and Philippe Chatelain)
(2007)
...as an interactive wall
“Timescape”,in collaboration with architect Hiroshi Naito (2006)
Fixed surface, interactive image
- other : lasers, sound
- classical camera/projector setup

Classical projector/camera setup...
Electric
Silhouettes
(2007)
(with NoForkDroise)
Parallax
Augmented
Desktop
(2007)
...other technological means of augmentation: lasers
stickyLight & scoreLight
(2008~)
augmented architectures?

Line Surface Noise
(in collaboration with Philippe Chatelain. Fundacio Pilar I Joan Miro, Mallorca)
(2008)
Artificial sensorimotor contingencies for
enhanced spatial and visual perception
...artificial antennae ?
Proprioception (body posture) tactile feedback
Haptic Radar (2006)
… and the HaptiKAT
(2008)
(made for BBC program with Joanna Lumley)
As prepared for being exhibited for
two years...
Virtual
Haptic Radar:
feeling ghosts
(2009)
What is “presence”? What is a physical object?
haptikar
(2009)
Again, de-construction of a “body” in space
(some of my proposals for Nissan Innovative Concept award
Minimal reactive displays

Ghost in the saccade…
(in collaboration with Junji Watanabe, 2008 )
Images without support? images as transient illusions in space
Sound Image
...artificial synesthesia?
Augmenting spaces with media…
or media-spaces?
Mixing spatial scales
• Mixing scales
• zoom-existence system
• Microscopic manipulation
micro
macro
Shared space: OUROBOROS
(work in progress:
pre-selected (Nov. 2008) among 53 Finalistsfor the “LIVE BITS: Art Exploring Real-Time Connectedness”)
(2008~)
Patchwork of spaces taken from different places in the word… new mediated-architecture!
From robotic-based tele-existence…
… to robotic based simulated teleportation
Tele-ping pong
Shared space: simulated teleportation
Vision Chip is used to capture position of the puck
without appreciable delay
…data is sent to the “other side” using
UDP/IP connection.
An early attempt: tele air-hockey prototype (2005)
Tele-Existence: teleport the SELF
"Telesar" (Tachi Lab)
Eliciting a powerful sense of tele-presence is key to performance here
• Multimodal distal attribution
• Respect natural sensori-motor patterns (human-like avatar - actuators and sensors)
•
• - artificial “out-of-body” experience
• - manipulation: size, delay, view
BoxedEgo
Exploring the sense of “self” and
placement in space… where are we?
“Autoscopes” in the wild: the future of Mirrors?
43
what is space?
what is augmentation / mediation?
...and how to sell art? (thanks JinYo! ;)
self-centered “referential”
sketching...
