The EyeWalker

exonemo Interview (YCAM)

Installation view (The Yebisu International Festival for Art & Alternative Visions)

An installation created using version 2.0 of The EyeWriter: an open-source eyetracking system developed to support Tempt1, a legendary graffiti writer who has ALS. There are various monitors (paired with cameras) set up in the exhibition space and are projected onto a screen in front of the viewer. By looking at a monitor sown inside another monitor, the viewer can jump to that monitor's location and fly around the space by looking at one monitor after another. The work was first presented as a commissioned production at the Yamaguchi Center for Arts and Media (YCAM). Later on, it was invited to The Yebisu International Festival for Art & Alternative Visions and was exhibited in the outdoor plaza of Ebisu Garden Place.
