Dan Sandin :The Cave:The CAVE™ Virtual Reality Theatre


developers: Thomas A. DeFanti, Daniel J. Sandin

CAVE™
The CAVE™ is a multi-person, room-sized, high-resolution 3D video and audio environment invented at EVL in 1991. Graphics are projected in stereo onto three walls and the floor, and viewed with active stereo glasses equipped with a location sensor. As the user moves within the display boundaries, the correct perspective is displayed in real-time to achieve a fully immersive experience.

Bright Advanced Technology (BAT) CAVE™
In June 2001, EVL built the next-generation Bright Advanced Technology CAVE™, or BAT CAVE, using Christie Digital Systems' Mirage 5000 projectors--the first DLP-based Active Stereoscopic projector--and near-black screens for higher contrast.

The BAT CAVE's brightness, clarity and enhanced depth perspective produce more captivating real-time, real-life projection simulations than previous CAVE™ technology.

my new reading material along side a little Leopold Von Sacher Masoch :
MUNTADAS: ON TRANSLATION:
http://adaweb.walkerart.org/influx/muntadas/
lovely book. ..."isn't it". (statement)

<em>a project that was running in Rotterdam. fascinating. at times a headache to read and then re-read to "get it".
but it was 'lovely'
references to Walter Bejamin, Octavi Rofes, Marc Auge, barbera Kirshenblatt-Gimblett and Bartomeu Mari
ON TRANSLATION
is a series of works

exploring issues of

transcription, interpretation,

and translation.

from language to codes

from science to technology

from subjectivity to objectivity

from agreement to war

from private to public

from semiology to cryptology

The role of translation/translators

as a visible/invisible fact.


( I found this book on one of many meanderings around the bookstores in Sydney's streets) love to u dear stimulating Sydney.....sigh.
