“Duality” by Travis Bennett at 3D Web Fest

On 30 June 2017, experience the most innovative, experimental and game-based projects from top thought leaders, influencers and creators at the 3D Web Fest. Artists working with WebGL, WebAudio, Javascript, CSS, HTML5, Three.js, and VR will showcase their creations in a mind-blowing festival of bleeding-edge tech. Now in its third year, over 15 artists will explore the theme of “connection” in a film festival setting.

The third annual 3D Web Fest is a fundraiser benefiting non-profit CODAME ART+TECH whose mission is to embrace innovation through creativity, play, and collaboration between companies, artists and technologists, building immersive, engaging, out of the ordinary experiences.

“Duality” is one of those projects!

“Duality”

Dancers explore the concepts of duality, identity, and connectivity through motion capture technology. What does it mean to live in multiple worlds simultaneously? To abstract and augment the human form? Do virtual spaces connect or divide us?

This project was built with OpenPerform framework by Kinetech Arts.

“Duality” is the work of Team Neuron, composed of Travis Bennett, Lauren Bedal, Fabian Lamaitre and Ye Wang.
