Abstract:
This presentation examines the recent artwork On the Precipice of Forgetting. It captures the sensation of teetering on the brink of forgetting and is sited at a dam wall renowned for its unique acoustic properties. The artwork navigates memory lapses and fragmented conversational paths, while the immersive VR experience contemplates memory fluidity and virtual environments’ perceptual effects.
