Abstract:


    Remembrance: Magma is an immersive virtual reality animation addressing the poetics of a mind as it is dying of dementia. Remembrance: Magma incorporates modern tech, cutting-edge research on the aging brain, East Asian crafting aesthetics, and Korean shamanic traditions as it examines the nature of the brain as a sensor that desires data even as it slowly fails. Culturally intersectional, Remembrance explores the poetic and painful processes of memory degeneration.
