Pictoplasma Festival 2019
Character Proxemics
Laurie was commissioned by Pictoplasma to create this life-size holographic installation and immersive background that rewards engagement and interaction. His tiered totem-like character uses sensors to detect proximity and movement, revealing further layers and behaviours as visitors approach via an elevated catwalk. As the character grows, it also produces a new layer of instrumentation contributing to the sound-track playing in the hall. Part of the expansive Inter-faces exhibition, assets for the hologram were also used to create Pictoplasma’s 2019 intro.
