Description

Interacting with Abydos is an interactive digital exhibition that focuses on the Abydos Excavation site in Egypt. Abydos is an ancient site where archeologists have uncovered a 5,000 year old history. Our exhibition aims to leverage innovative technology used by the archeology team at Abydos to create interactive experiences that demystify life in ancient Abydos. We worked closely with Matthew Adams, a senior research scholar at NYU who has been working on the Abydos site since 1999.

In this exhibition, presented as a website, we reveal the everyday life of people in Ancient Egypt based on what the artifacts from the Abydos site tell us. The physical installation, shown through 3D renderings of the space, imagines a large-scale exhibition where people can learn about the excavation site and findings in person. The digital interactive adapts the journey of the exhibition into a desktop experience.

Treasure Tracking

Trace the trade path of Chinese lost cultural heritage

Description

China has a long history of 5000 years, during which, there exists a huge amount of cultural treasures. However, due to wars, political and economic factors, as well as many other complex reasons, a lot of treasures were lost, many of which were divided into pieces and traveling around the world now. China has always been working on reuniting them and eventually bringing them back home. However, it definitely ain’t easy since the treasures were traded by many parties and the routes are hard to track over time. They might have traveled abroad in multiple places and landed in museums, auctions, galleries, or individuals’ hands. So, we are planning to create a map to trace the trade path of Chinese lost cultural heritage.

Synthetic Gardens, Electric Dreams

Upon waking up from your REM sleep, join a tour with me in the synthetic gardens, electric dreams

Caren Ye

https://youtu.be/nH6RRaz1FmU

Description

As virtual reality transforms us into an immersive space, the wandering experience in the synthetic garden resembles our experiences in the REM sleep stage, which is associated with dreaming, memory consolidation, learning, and problem solving to visit our unconscious mind.

Using human bodies, gestures, imaginary creatures with elements from man-made world and nature, the garden unwraps a world inspired by the unheeded nature, fantasy fictions, traditional Chinese garden art (Yuanlin) and rituals, speculating the relationship between man and nature in the digital neutropia.

It will also be like an interactive audio-visual experience with spatial music arranged throughout the journey.

Late Night Island

Late Night Island is a VR meditation experience that attempts to recall the warm, quiet but lonely feelings.

Wen Chen

Description

Late Night Island is a VR meditation experience that attempts to recall the warm, quiet but lonely feelings. Following the light hint, visitors will find the mysterious coffee shop hiding behind rocks and forest, and enjoy the music I chose. This piece is aimed to help people relieve the pressure and embrace the loneliness during quarantine by creating an imaginary resort.

This work is inspired by my personal experience of staying at a coffee shop until midnight. I used to visit cozy and dim light coffee shops when I didn't feel like going home alone. Coffee shop for me is an escape from the boring and limited space. Currently, many people like me are restricted to our own rooms, which results in the feeling of ultimate isolation and despair. Through creating a nonexistent island in Virtual Reality, I would like to invite people to take a break and get away from the limit of reality.
