[spectre] Project Paperclip exhibiting in California May 8-9

[Nuno Serrão | urbanistas]

Hi,

 

Just to let you guys know that a reduced version of my exhibit Project
Paperclip (www.discloseprojectpaperclip.com) will be shown in California,
May 8-9, at the ARE (www.augmentedrealityevent.com) – Santa Clara Convention
Center.

Project Paperclip is a photograph exhibit that uses real-time processed
reactive soundscapes. The concept was imagined by the Portuguese creative
Nuno Serrão, and by including the auditory canal, it tries to transport
visitors to a state that gives them a different interpretation of of the 16
photographs.

The experience is unique each time it is activated as the app’s algorithm
utilizes real-time processing of variables from the visitors location, such
as: the time of day, the level of noise that exists in the room, your voice,
the movement and localization of the user, amongst many others.

What is being said:
“It is subtly disconcerting, an ominous prediction of the artificial
realities we build with the help of smartphone apps and the Internet.”
ReadWriteWeb
“The photos are surreal, especially with the pairing of soundtracks.”
Mashable
“There’s still people using the technology in innovative ways.”
TheCreatorsProject

“Photography exhibit in Portugal is using augmented reality and QR codes to
enrich the viewer experience, demonstrating applications for the technology
in the fine arts”. PSFK

“With the use of an iPhone app, photographer Nuno Serrão has created an all
encompassing experience for anyone who wants to view his photography the way
it was intended.” TheNextWeb

“ (
) the concept of an app containing a portion of the exhibit itself is
completely new and fascinating.” Appadvice

“Trippin’ – the art masters of yesteryears might also wish they had such
technology at their disposal.” Ubbergizmo
