meltdown: una investigació artística sobre computació espacial, identitat i experiències immersives
En els darrers anys, el terme immersiu s’ha utilitzat de manera tan àmplia que sovint ha perdut part del seu significat. Moltes experiències s’etiqueten com a immersives simplement per utilitzar projeccions o dispositius de realitat virtual. El projecte Meltdown parteix precisament d’aquesta situació per proposar una aproximació diferent: entendre la immersió com una construcció artística i perceptiva, on la tecnologia no determina el relat, sinó que es posa al servei d’una experiència coherent i significativa.
