Question/Topic:
What are the new aesthetic and technical issues involved in representing the physical experience of aquatic environments with interactive video installations?
Humans have a complex and difficult relationship to the aquatic environment. We need water to survive and our bodies are part water, but on the other hand it is an environment where we cannot breathe naturally and there is always the possibility of drowning. The experience of it both restricts and heightens our sensory responses and operates within its own category of aesthetic criteria. Emerging interactive sound and video technologies provides new methods to explore the physical nature of this experience within the context of installation practice.
