The developments of certain technologies have continued to push the boundaries of the conceptual transfiguration of a person's perception of space and reality, manipulating our senses and assaulting our feeling of corporeality. Through my installation, I present the viewer with multiple modes of telecommunications, allowing the viewer the options of being an active participant in their experience, or become a passive spectator. I aim to challenge the individual to discover a higher awareness to their physical being through social-technological interaction, and question the ethical responsibility of social-political structures implementing these given technologies.enMixed media (Art)Interactive artThesisCopyright 2013 by Christopher James Holton
