VR/MR SPECULATIONS
Selection of projects relating to Virtual/Mixed reality produced by practice - Space Popular
Space Popular's vision for a multidimensional memorial in Cubryna Park in Warzaw
Augmentations of The Pavilion. There are at least 5 known version of Palac Kazimierzowski ranging from early Baroque versions dating from the 17th century to mid 20th century Neoclassical variants. We propose to have the footprint of all versions as a steel-plate contour in the ground and an a virtual reality augmentation to be experienced on site via different devices.
Colorful alloy structure partially outlining the mid 17th century Palac Kazimierzowsky.
Stone piece recovered from the Vistula river supported by the aluminium alloy structure.
Virtual reality reconstructions of the palace displaying corinthian capitals from the late neoclassical variant, visualized through VR devices.
Space Popular proposal for a global mortality rate database and new way to experience and process death on a fully virtual platform.
The Cloud of Resilience is both a database where global mortality rates can be visualized and explored and a virtual platform for the keeping and remembering of the dead. Nearly 100 people die every minute. That makes almost 2 deaths per second. Geolocated and offset according to time, such data would generate a point-cloud of varying densities, revealing the outlines of the most populated places on earth. If we apply a death-rate filter to a given instant in history, we could visualize war, starvation, pandemics or other mass fatalities taking place in the timeframe selected.
