The Commitment

Posted in Process by admin on September 12th, 2008

Using the previous example to work off, I will have the same sort of layout  along a wall setting, but instead of having people standing along side one another there will be levitating heads. Connotations to wisdom, experience etc. Idea comes from the Wizard of Oz and the great Oz’s levitating head. Believed to be something great, yet its just a man behind the curtain. So i intend to play with that idea in the installation.

As the user walks past a floating head it will start speaking, spreading its wisdom to the on lookers. The heads maybe an animation with the interviewed people projected onto the artificial surface/face.

The heads will be triggered by a camera above the wall, observing when users pass each head.
