Liminal Bodies
(April 2023- Present)
“Liminal Bodies” is an interactive performance experience that explores the intersection between dance and technology. This AR project utilizes real-time full body-tracking technology where viewers can access the AR experience from their mobile devices, witnessing live performers dancing with their 3D digital avatars.
This project is inspired by my interests in the history of human evolution and our remarkable ability to adapt to diverse environments. As I explore how innovations such as temperature regulation systems and water supply networks facilitate our adaptation to varying external conditions, I crafted two 3D models envisioning the potential evolution of the human form in extreme environments include a post-apocalyptic landscape reminiscent of fallen buildings and the rugged world of "Mad Max," as well as an aquatic realm submerged beneath the waves.
