DESCRIPTION

Concept  & Artistic Direction: Jeffrey Shaw & Sarah Kenderdine

Technical Design and Programming: Scott Ashton (LiTM)

Systems Integration: Yossi Landesman

3d Modelling: Conor O'Kane

Date: 2009

UNMAKEABLELOVE realizes Beckett's The Lost Ones into digital form, creating believable intelligent agents from complex motion captured sequences. The "user" is asked to voyeur into this dark world, pointing a real torch into the virtual void, revealing snapshots of Beckett's imagination.  A video feed captures each person using the installation, and projects them into the space, creating a truly room-scale mixed reality experience.

TECHNICALS

Engine: XNA

Languages: C#, C++, HLSL

This project was developed before the populist adoption of game engines, with all the code being developed from scratch.  It features volumetric rendering, incorporates extensive use of motion capture, and integrates several custom hardware elements into a truly ground breaking installation.
