Endless Darkness: Immersive Interactive Experience

2023

"Endless Darkness" is an experiemental interactive experience that dig into a cybernetic dystopian realm which I led as an environment builder and co-narrative producer. This project, a digital embodiment of a post-apocalyptic vision, situates the audience in a desolate street leading to an enigmatic, well-preserved theatre. It presents a thought-provoking question: "What if our perception of the world was solely dependent on digital data transmitted through wearable devices?"

This immersive experience challenges the conventional boundaries of human sensation, experimenting with a myriad of effects rendered through Non-Photorealistic-Renderer (NPR). The NPR shifts the audience's visual perception, transforming regular 3D color visions into various modes such as mosaic, thermal, night, and matrix vision. Each mode offers a unique lens through which the desolate world is perceived, pushing the boundaries of digital art and sensory experience.

"Endless Darkness" is a simulated confluence of Extended Reality (XR), Virtual Reality (VR), and Augmented Reality (AR). It portrays a dystopian future where human sensory abilities have deteriorated, and reliance on advanced technology is paramount to experiencing the world. This project not only explores the potential extremes of sensory augmentation but also reflects on the implications of such technological dependence for human perception and interaction with the environment. It invites the audience to ponder the essence of their sensory experiences in a world increasingly mediated by technology.
