Artist Statement

Room with a view is a 360° interactive environment generated in real time. It is placed in a sphere of 12 meter diameter, in a Skoda Pavilon at the ‘Autostadt’, a theme park in Wolfsburg Germany. The visitors of the sphere can use an interÍace, so called Navigator. It is a touch sensitive, ratable LCD screen. 0n the top of the screen there is a video camera, so the user may have two levels of information while surfing with the Navigator: the icons which can be activated and a segment of the projected image which is taken by the camera and displayed on the screen. The user can enter seven different worlds and interact within the worlds in different manners.
