4. Research.1

4.1. Research Output2

My art practice employs experimental computer animation in order to explore aesthetics of painting within expanded and new cinematic forms. I like to refer to my animated films as “unframed paintings” that innovatively combine digital animation and stereo to fit diverse media spaces. My current research interests are in novel display technologies, immersive art environments, productions and trends for creating computer generated art works and solutions for their digital presentation for mediated spaces. Table 5 is summary of the main research output while at NTU (2007-2014). Please see Table 6 for Summary of the main research for the last 3 years.

i) Research StatementHow can artists and film makers today create memorable digital experiences, an animated "artistic canvas" with art content that would work for advanced display technologies - from large scale immersive cinematic spaces such as planetariums to urban walls for community generated content? How can creative content remain unique and step ahead of the technology that enables it? Can the new media artists move the focus from the challenge of how to use new media technology to the challenge of how to create timeless quality experiences that involve the viewer as an active participant?

The broad objective of my research is to conduct an interdisciplinary exploration of the new aesthetic possibilities in contemporary art practice, Stereoscopic 3D animation and new media technology for novel immersive hemispherical environments and art exhibitions. The outcomes of the projects are creation of the original artistic content for immersive spaces in collaboration of film makers, animators, educators, researchers and scientists.

The areas of interest are: Painting, 3D Computer Animation, Installation Art, Immersive Visualization displays, Public Art, Stereoscopic Immersive Experiences.

45 THE DEEP SPACE16:9 is cinema format. 16:9 is also Deep Space format—16x9 meters, 150 m2 of floor space that can also be used as a projection surface, and possibilities for users themselves to intervene in what’s going on due all to the gallery running along three of the space’s walls at an altitude of five meters. Eight projectors deliver unsurpassed high-definition images made up of several billion pixels. The itinerary of screenings includes space, exploration of historical sites, excursions into art history

in high resolution size. 2013 Ars Electronica Festival brought together neuroscientists and computer engineers, artists and philosophers for an in-depth consideration of TOTAL RECALL and an endeavor to elaborate on how we human beings deal with storing our memories and preserving them. In going about this, the focus was on three key aspects: (neuro)scientific findings and insights about what memory actually is and what meaning it possesses for our consciousness and our identity; the various cultures of remembrance and the diverse storage media used in the past and the present; and future forms and methods of conserving memory. More than 500 artists, scientists and scholars from 45 countries contributed their perspectives, speeches, installations, performances and interventions to this year’s festival. 421 events made up the Festival lineup and had more than 85,000 visits. "Elysian Fields" was exhibited and screened in Deep Space presentations twice daily over the entire weeklong festival, starring together with featured art virtual installation by Mind Games, FH OÖ Campus Hagenberg (AT), Voices of Aliveness by Masaki Fujihata (JP).

In this project, we propose R&D of novel tools of brain state quantification that could be integrated in IMI Triple I System (Interaction, Immersion & Innovation) and used in e‐learning, art and medical applications. The algorithms are implemented with blobby visualization tools for EEG analysis and are integrated in EEG based “serious” games. The “serious” games will be proposed for e‐learning and medical applications including the games based on concentration/attention recognition for e‐learning and Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) therapy and pain management games. Such games could be used by the user/patient even at home convenience.

b) Brief overview of research Project/Output/Contribution

The proposed research project will delve into an innovative approach toward image creation methodologies, researching and integrating emotive and subjective abstract imagery in digital, traditional and non-traditional forms. Completed were new media art works that converged around 1) algorithm derived and computer generated paint strokes; 2) high resolution computer rendering techniques; 3) virtual fine art renderings for site specific proposals; 4) physical prototyping for gallery exhibition/installation experiences; 5) stereoscopic 3D still and animated image. The main goal of this research was not so much technical and scientific forms of visualization rather developing new aesthetics for artworks within new media technologies paint strokes, 2) high resolution computer rendering techniques 3) animation.
