In and Out of Reality

Imaging technologies are in a constant race to achieve the highest level of realism for capturing and displaying reality in all dimensions. At the same time, advancements are made to enable the manipulation of media to the point where it’s hard to detect truth from false. 

Ziv’s work explores tensions between physical and computer-generated realities and proposes ways in which the physical and virtual can interplay. She will show work done over the last five years and share a project currently in development titled Sylvia, a virtual influencer.

This SensiLab Forum was held on Wednesday 22nd July 2020. A video is available below.
