MetabolizerThis software product is a computer game demonstrating
interactive modeling of an image in real time and its exhibition in an
art gallery. The game is a virtual construction-type system through which
every participant creates a model of human body acting upon it through
cause-and-effect means. Thus every participant becomes a designer in my
multi-media installation by modeling my body, i.e. the body of the author
of this project. The visible and formal change of human body is caused
by metabolic changes. Substances, artificially derived and created through
biotic synthesis, can cause and control the process. The changes resulting
from the interaction between external pressure and internal necessity become
a symbol of personal identification and adaptation to the society.
My project
consists of a multimedia installation exhibited in XXL Art Gallery in Sofia
and this software product you have accessed to through the internet. It
will enable you to take part in the multi-media installation where the
image you generate through your computer can be seen on a videowall. By
mixing and dosing different substance you will be able to shape the model
of the human body.
The picture above shows the influence with anabols
The model which
you have designed will become visible through a realistic image of my body
on the videowall.
Thank you in advance for your participation.
