Abstract:
This paper describes embodied and enacted futures as artistic practice as demonstrated through collaborative artistic projects discussed as a suit of immersive digital experiences – Spheres a Dance for Virtual Reality, Glasshouse Evocation and Transmittance. Each of these works are created through transdisciplinary collaboration across choreographic, sound and visual design, interactivity and game development combined through a distributed feminist artistic process. Embodied and enacted futures as artistic practice is informed by future studies, physical narratives and experiential design. These speculative future enactments are activated as immersive digital applications and embodied experiences. In each case the outcome of a futures driven process is a participatory work that evokes creativity and change for the participant through transformation.
