L'Entrée (The Opening), No. 2

3D Model

Amid the global migration between physical and virtual worlds, L’Entrée delves into the desire to capture, understand, and keep unchanged the vital human body. Equal parts audio poem, 3D-printed sculpture exhibition, and augmented reality experience, L’Entrée reveals a series of virtual sculptures situated in centuries of human movement along the newly pedestrianized area of Strand/Aldwych.

The sculptures, created in a game engine with photogrammetry, mocap, and computational averaging, perform a virtual dance immersing viewers in their unique forms as spatial sound pulls listeners between the tangible streets of London and the intangible world of Web3/XR technologies, ultimately begging the question: what is the purpose of the human body in an increasingly virtual existence?
