Abstract:
We describe the creation of virtual “Art Volant” (“flying art”), a virtual reality extension of kite art by Jackie Matisse. Past exhibitions of Matisse’s kites have involved either static real-world kites, or pre-recorded films of the kites in motion. Through the use of VR, gallery patrons are able to fly kites themselves, enhancing their appreciation of the work.
