Triopic Spectacle / PDNB (Postdigital Neobaroque) (AT/DE/IT/GB)
Impressions of the Project "Triopic Spectacle" by PDNB (Postdigital Neobaroque) (AT/DE/IT/GB) at the "Digital && Life" Exhibition at the Ars Electronica Festival 2021.
As part of an ongoing process of decentralisation and democratisation of the digital, "Triopic Spectacle" endeavours to flatten the hierarchies between the real and the potential–a radical concept initiated by 17th century baroque thought. The transmedial installation challenges the outmoded, myopic, binary thinking of local/global, 1s/0s, individual/collective, real/virtual, analog/digital, natural/artificial by establishing a series of two-way windows, bridges, interfaces, portals and glitches between three ‘triopic’ domains: ‘real reality’, comprised of physical, robotically 3D-printed architectures to be experienced and interacted with by passers-by; ‘mixed reality’, a virtual, spatial, boundless and immersive ML-developed VR space for augmented visitors (with VR goggles); and ‘virtual reality’, an interactive and online-based social space for online users to interact with the abovementioned realities.
