IGNOTO VIBRATIONS XR SCULPTURE 2022
CLIENT:RIO ART MUSEUM (MAR), GOETHE INSTITUTE
POSITION:XR DIRECTOR AND CREATOR
TOOLS: 8TH WALL, BLENDER, MIRO
Ignoto Vibrations is a mixed-reality sculpture series prototype and performance commissioned for the Museum Conference at Rio Art Museum (MAR) in Brazil. I co-created the project in collaboration with the artist Rodrigo Andreolli and the architect Marilia Piraju. As an XR director, I coordinated an international team of tech professionals (AR developer, 3D modeler, and animator) and designed the user experience.
The fire at the National Museum of Rio de Janeiro on September 2, 2018, created images loaded with symbolic force about the treatment conditions given to Brazil's scientific and cultural research. This fire caused the loss of the most important museum collections in the country's history, but at the same time made us reflect on the weight of certain historical narratives, urging us to trace new memories that re-exist beyond the destroyed matter. Fire, in its tragic manifestation, also reaches its transcendental aspect.
Based on the study of narratives brought by researchers and members of the National Museum collection rescue team, this project proposes a prototype exhibition in Mixed Reality, motivated by 3D scans of some of the recovered pieces and the memories lost in the fire.
