Study project

 * Presentation:

I'm student in digital creation in France. I study a lot of creation software (3D, sound, image, video ..) such as Blender, Ableton, Photoshop, Processing... We also work with arduino. The aim of my studies is to realize a project related to digital creation. That's why, I would like to made a project both immersive and interactive.

To carry out this project, I would like to work with the software Processing, with Arduino, and a 3D software.

- Needed material : A computer, an arduino card with a motion sensor, a kinect, a pico projector, mirrors, and an helmet printed with the 3D printer.


 * Project :

In my project, I want to question the place of the human in the universe. I want to question too, real and reality (real represent that surrounds us and the reality is our own perception about the real). This project talk about universe, more particulary multiverse, and real and reality. Is the universe real ? or just the reality of an another universe ? The reality depends on our percetion of the real, and on the informations that we received of this real. So, maybe our universe receives informations from an another universe, so this would mean that our universe is the reality of an another reality, so reality of an another universe, itself reality of an another universe .. and that could be infinite. So the question is : if there is just realities, does the real exist ? In this project I would like that the participant  create his own universe within the digital universe. Digital is a universe within our universe, it’s part of the multiverse. So with this project I want that the participant question himself about the real and the reality, if the universe is real or not. If it’s possible to create a real universe (with the digital) or if this universe is just our own reality. Moreover I would like to create a loss of landmarks, that’s why I want the participant enter into a black room with no sounds, a room without landmarks. After that I would like the participant put on is head a helmet in which the universe would be projected. I would like that inside this helmet, the participant have no landmarks. So I would like to put some mirrors inside to disrupt the landmarks. So I have to check if it’s work. So if it’s work I would like to make the helmet with the 3D printer. The participant would be able to create his own universe thanks to a Kinect which will detect the participant's mouvments. The kinect will send these informations to processing, and processing will send the design of the interactive universe to the pico projector which will project this universe inside the helmet. In fact, the pico projector will be inside the helmet.
