The Fun Palace Carnival of Mixed Realities
Date: 25 June 2019
Location: The Hangar, Centre for Digital Media, Vancouver
The Fun Palace (A Carnival of Mixed Realities) is a curated location-specific mixed reality event consisting of several interactive prototypes that propose new audience interactions with emerging technologies such as Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR) and Mixed Reality (MR).
The Fun Palace is a provocative reinvention of the low fidelity sketches of Cedric Price (1964) and others, drawing from the field of Cybernetics. Situated in the Hangar at the Centre for Digital Media on June 25th 6pm-10pm, this event will allow audiences to engage with dancers, actors, musicians and a host of real and virtual animations and objects.
AR viewing stations throughout the Centre for Digital Media’s Hangar space will allow audiences to experience an augmented world. Contributions will include:
A digital dance jukebox by company in residence Small Stage that combines mixed and augmented reality
