About

Sunjammer 6

Read full description

Contemporary artist Toni Dove creates media machines that blur the boundaries between performance and installation and fuse film, game, experimental theater and artificial intelligence-based interaction. This extraordinary artist’s book is a love story, a conversation between two characters connecting across time, each pushing back against an encroaching dark age. Hypatia, a Hellenistic astronomer, mathematician, and philosopher assassinated in 415 CE returns 10 years in our future as a furious ghost. As she navigates her new environment, she absorbs what has happened over time and encounters Kepler Redux, a NASA engineer building a solar array off-world power station and running up against the remnants of the carbon fuel industry.   The book, part of a project that includes an installation and a performance, is a poetic and dream-like experience about resistance and the consequences of the fear of knowledge.   Augmented Reality adds a magical third dimension, bringing characters and scenes off the page with sound and image. Download the free app for smartphone or tablet.  This adds a layer of three-dimensional sound and visuals to your experience of the book, creating intimate 3D cinema.   To experience the story in immersive augmented reality, point your device at designated pages in the  book or download the provided demo PDF.
