Sensitive World

General information:

This project, also known under the name Dark Matter since November 2008, will investigate the way physical data (from sensors) about the world and virtual data from the web can be merged and presented in a total user experience in order to increase people's awareness about the world's state and well being using representations that are recognizable for humans and which humans can empathize with.

We are interested in how physical data influence virtual data and how we can visualize such complex patterns. By means of the development of an immersive environment, in which a user is part of the system, the data visualization will be presented in an interactive sensory experience.

A first work in progress result of the installation was presented at Vooruit during November 2008.
