Viso performance, Nuit Blanche 2007

As promised, here some more material about the Viso performance during the Nuit Blanche: some photos and a short video.



I did not had much time for shooting and taking pictures: there were always a lot of people waiting to interact with the piece.



The performance started at around 7PM, and went on till 5AM; I estimate that at least 3000 people have interacted with Viso.



The sensors where placed right on the mannequin, but the interacting face was projected on a big screen far away.



The people where amused and at he same time bemused by the association between the headless mannequin, wearing a wedding dress, and the interacting face zooming in the direction of the approaching observers, following their movements with the eyes...



Viso is an interactive artwork developed by Bartproject, based on a painting by Gregorio Rigotti.

I'm curious .. Who gave movement to the image, which to me seems to already have life. ? .. A beautiful image of a face of a pensive woman, contemplative ... passionate. Who did it, has talent .. have feelings.
