Based on the ideas of "observing the act of observation" and "consciously and unconsciously established lines of vision", this installation generates traces of two participants' respective lines of sight. The participants experience an almost "haptic" kind of communication based on their own visualized lines of sight in a three-dimensional virtual space. In this process, their respective lines of vision enact a complex, organic architectural construct that could be considered as "bioarchitecture".
In this remake, the implementation of the open-source project "The EyeWriter ver 2.0" made it possible to utilize eye control technology without wearing any device, and to navigate unrestrictedly within the naked eye's broad field of view. Thanks to the contributions of such noted artists as evala and Norimichi Hirakawa (collaborating as guest programmers), elements of imagery, sound and interactivity of the original work were updated to such an extent that this new version can be regarded as a completely new piece of art.
*Ticket to "Desire of Codes" exhibition required.
