Abstract:
“Body RemiXer” is a mixed reality installation that connects immersants using a virtual reality headset, Kinect, and projections. It explores the potential of immersive technology to create co-present experiences that foster intercorporeality between immersants. Observations during public exhibitions revealed “Body RemiXer’s” capacity to disrupt social norms and stimulate new connections.
