… PLAY MACHINIMA

.

The machinima (in-world motion media), produced in the In the Sweet Bye & Bye installation, presents a simulated walk-thru of the installation, from the avatar (first person) or camera point-of-view. It gives a brief impression of the immersive experience of the visitor-via-avatar. It also serves as primer, for visitors, on reading in three dimensions, disclosing the richness and depth of the piece when viewed from the optimum points-of-view. The sequence of views and paths through the installation are barely a glimpse of the content and possibilities. The sound track of the machinima simulates the layers of voice and ambience in the installation. The machinima is available to visitors at the installation site through a kiosk adjacent to the entrance.
