The interactive video wall
The video-installations is a analysis of cultural use of gestural interfaces on everyday devices of communication (iphones). Patrons will be able to move the video projection with the motion of their hand over the sensor and changing the video on the projection using gestural forms.
The installation is base on infrared technology and custom software.
Balam Soto merges existing and custom, digital technology with artistic concepts and aesthetics to create exploratory works, including interactive art installations, digital murals, art video and performance. By merging art and technology, Balam provides a seamless interaction between humans and technology, creating artworks that react to the presence or behaviors of individuals. Balam works independently on the artistic and technical sides of his artworks.
