ON SITE A.R.T. 1.0 app for iPhone and iPad

ON SITE A.R.T. creates location-specific augmented reality installations accessible via your smartphone or tablet computer using image-recognition and geo-locational information. This app turns your phone into a de facto time machine loading your viewfinder with original video content. On view now is THE UNSEEN, an original creation for the (UN)SCENE ART FAIR, March 4-8 (Armory Arts Week) at 549 W 52nd Street. UNSEEN s a site-specific augmented reality installation which reveals the space as it existed in its raw form before being built out for exhibition. With the creation of this app,we open up spatiotemporal possibilities for performance and place it in the hands of the spectator - effectively transfiguring the space into a living archive, investigating ideas of mediation, memory and space. Part time-capsule, part platform, part memorial, this participatory platform can challenge the way we think about time- and site-specificity.
The demo at the link below shows video content triggered by an image on a computer screen. At the installation, the triggers will be the architecture of the gallery space itself. More content to be developed soon.
