Breathers / Mediated Intimacies

Faire: Delft

Maker: Laura A Dima

Home: Zuid-Holland, Nederland

Ik zal mijn werk Breathers presenteren, twee interactieve sculpturen die door middel van technologie menselijke verbondenheid op afstand verkennen. De installatie stelt twee personen in staat om elkaars lichamelijke signalen (hartslag, ademhaling en temperatuur) te ervaren via tactiele interfaces. Dit project zet mijn voortdurende onderzoek naar 'mediated social touch' (MST) voort, een gebied binnen de haptische technologie dat aanraking simuleert en mogelijk maakt tussen mensen die fysiek van elkaar gescheiden zijn. Met deze werken wil ik onderzoeken of tactiele feedback empathie en een gevoel van wederzijdse verantwoordelijkheid kan bevorderen. Daarnaast wil ik dieper ingaan op thema’s als consent, privacy en fluiditeit in technologisch gemedieerde interacties. Om deze visie te realiseren, moeten veel parameters en ethische vraagstukken worden overwogen. Ik hoop het publiek in een open dialoog te betrekken over de verdere ontwikkeling van dit project.
