Augmented Studies
Program for Contemporary Art & Augmented Reality
Augmentas is an AR program exporing the potential of Augmented Reality for cultural interaction. Our research is focused on the development of the medium Augmented Reality for new artistic productions. We work on a series of public art projects and a collaborative program for artistic experiments via Augmented Reality (AR). Launched 2018 as an educational project in Berlin, the program operates now internationally in support of artists, institutions and scholars.
“The excess of subjectivity at times collapses into a black hole that devours the self, arriving at a point of self-exhaustion within the cyclical process of transformation.”
“Nomad Trap” is an AR-based installation experience built upon the philosophical concepts of rhizome, strata, becoming, and the body without organs, as proposed by Deleuze and Guattari in A Thousand Plateaus. This project invites viewers to engage with a virtual sphere structure within real space via smart devices, allowing them to directly experience devices of philosophical thought. Through AR, viewers “observe” or “connect” with the structure and gradually come to recognize themselves as beings already captured within it. This process becomes a practice of becoming, disrupting fixed identities and relationships, approaching the state of a body without organs.
