Museum without Walls

The Space Expanding Room: AFAAB in VR - The virtual Ant Farm Antioch Art Building is a digital space constructed from 1971 archival architect’s drawings. In this virtual space, avatars can meet, chat, graffiti, attend events, and make art, just as students were once able to interact in the real space, before it was abandoned in 2008. An AFAAB production. Concept, curating, and direction by Catalina Alvarez and Liz Flyntz. Construction and design by Ty Clapsaddle.

Digitization of the fossilized skeleton of Mariliasuchus amarali with the Artec MHT.

Weekly meeting of the contidonãocontido project, with the curators-educators.

You are the crossroad of your memories - Born from clay and modelled in 3D, this installation is composed by a virtual room, a performance program and a digital publication. Its shape, inspired by the moringa, an object used by aboriginal peoples for storing and cooling water, is a reminder and an invitation: a reminder that without its union with natural elements, our existence would not be possible; and an invitation to play with the porosity of memory, identity and body. Concept and realization: Pedra Silva, Garu e Rodrigo Lopes.

Photogrammetry mapping of Roman amphorae in the Mediterranean Culture room. Photos were obtained using a drone because the floor of the room was covered by pieces of collection items, making it impossible to reach these items.

Dense point cloud of the Redonda and Filhote islands. The photo sequence, indicated by the blue rectangles, shows the boat trajectory around the islands.

Non-space I (the degrading idea of home) - This work seeks to displace and reformulate the social aspect of the WebVR space. Employing verticality, mirroring as well as dislocation of the voice and images of viewer inhabited avatar bodies, it teases out other possibilities of social interaction to be explored. Concept and realization: Commonolithic.
