Abstract:
Immersion and engagement are topics of great interest in the HCI community. Researchers in Gaming, virtual reality, and augmented reality are interested in what it is that draws and holds a user’s attention. Most of these works are focused on active engagement and high stimulus. nite_aura is an audio-visual, interactive installation exploring physical, auditory and visual motion within an immersive environment. In this project, we tried to create an alternative immersive environment focusing on sensual and physical interaction with audio and visual aspects. The immersive environment created is an environment of introspection rather than achievement. The work investigates the effect of the texture of space, light and sound in providing a comforting, relaxed immersion.
