Day's Not Over Yet Augmented Reality
Day’s Not Over Yet Augmented Reality Art Installation with Giant Hands over the Hudson River inside David Hammons's Day's End.
Created a virtual set in real time inside the virtual stage by David Hammons.
I created these series of Augmented Reality Art Installations using Maya and Unity 3D with AR foundation. Developed an app that runs on Android phones where the user places art objects on real surfaces in real time. I will soon post a completed app that will run on supported Android devices. Apple devices are currently supporting very interesting and sophisticated features and it is possible I will develop the apps for Apple devices in the future. Apple devices feature human occlusion so when people walk in the real space they are able to walk “in front of” or ”behind” the art.
I have always been fascinated with digital landscapes, entirely artificial ephemeral constructs which I used to inhabit as a commercial video games artist for many years. What is even more fascinating is the overlap of digital constructs over the megalopolis reality of New York City. A very exciting combination in my mind.
