MovISee opens today at NCKU Art Center
Tainan, Taiwan, January 9, 2016
A digital art exhibition giving you holistic experience to use your body, mind, involving physical space and time opens this afternoon at National Cheng Kung University (NCKU), Tainan, Taiwan. Many people from the university community came to join the event, making a great crowd and vibe.
An opening reception took place Saturday, January 9, from 2:30-4pm, at Art Center. NCKU President Huey-Jen Jenny Su attended the opening ceremony and congratulated Prof. Yen-Ting Cho on his success and a great exhibition.
She said that she was impressed by the innovation and creativity showcased here and strongly recommended NCKU students especially students of planning and design come to see the exhibition.
Prof. Cho joined the Institute of Creative Industries Design (ICID) this semester and MovISee is his creation. At the opening, he welcomed all the visitors and also expressed his gratitude to his team members and students.
Cho proudly presented MovISee. “With the MovISee platform, participants have to move their bodies in order to see the visual outputs,” he said, “and after trying various movements, the participants learn to use their body movements to create what they see.”
He added, “MovISee encourages participants to use their full body. Through iterations, participants used what they had learned to achieve something more complex.”
Also, MovISee gives individual choice and individual control to viewers leading to new experience that undermines linearity, paralleling fields such as architecture and sculpture.
“I want to create a climate of possibility, so people will rise to it and achieve things that they completely did not anticipate, and couldn’t have expected,” said Cho.
MovISee creates a ‘Cube’ of possibility that encourages participants to explore by moving their body to spontaneously create unpredictable ways of seeing and thus discover new things.
The exhibition has five zones - Dance, See, Feel, Lie, and Play. Dance zone is interactive and visitors can create their own videos by moving their body. In See zone, visitors can watch previous videos created from MovISee.
Feel zone displays silk scarves created from MovISee videos. Lie zone is occupied by bean bags created with YTC patterns derived from MovISee. Play zone shows an innovative table game inspired by YTC patterns.
One of the table games called “Oh! My God?” was a creation of three students of ICID. Inspired by YTC patterns, they designed the game base on Taiwanese mythology, history and the temple culture in Tainan.
MovISee is open from January 9 to 17, 9:30am – 5pm daily. Free admission.
