Emancipating XR (Extended Reality) is an speculative media archaeology project which aims to capture the possibilities and difficulties for Virtual Reality practitioners seeking to work with Open-Source technologies.
|
||||
|
||||
The project is led by (Aiden Brady)[https://vimeo.com/abrady] and Cailean Finn and has been funded by Immersive Arts UK's 'Experiment' strand.
|
||||
|
||||
Tied-in with this project is Aiden Brady's VR project "A Town Unravelled" which initially sought to creatively appropriate a VR headset for artistic purposes and use the accessible system information to impact a VR installation artwork. This artwork was presented in grassroots and alternative contexts, outside of traditional arts infrastructures, in Newry City, Northern Ireland.
|
||||
|
||||
After embarking on this project, it became clear that developing a coherent artwork for display in a non-gallery context and successfully developing open source methods to do so, would be a mammoth task. So, the project has been segmented for now and this website reflects partially on the individual artistic process for "A Town Unravelled" but to a much greater extent, begins to develop a non-linear research map of the type of methods being developed by open-source curious XR practitioners.
|
||||
|
||||
Throughout the site, there are references to the vast amount of material online in this area which was clearly once available but has since been deleted, or now leads to a dead link. One could only speculate why discussions of this nature are no longer available.
