In this work Alan is projecting the virtual world Second Life on to Eyebeam's wall. Foofwa is dancing in the physical space where Azure is also singing. Mark is adding augmented reality to mix the physical and virtual worlds which was and is viewed on smartphones and mobile devises.

The shown video is Mark Skwarek's documentation and the augmented reality should be viewed as a sketch rather than finished work.

"pool hopping" on the island of the bull


"pool hopping" on the island of the bull

Artist Mark Skwarek will transform different locations tied to the financial crisis into islands surrounded by a sea of fire with augmented reality [AR]. Skwarek will travel from island to island in a special AR boat and partake in the tradition of "pool hopping". Skwarek and other pool hoppers will party in the island's pool until kicked out by security or until the party moves.

eyebeam / open studios / winter 2011 :: resident alan sondheim :: azure carter :: mark skwarek
This was a collaboration organized by eyebeam resident alan sondheim for the winter 2011 open studios. The work deals with pain, loss, and wounded avatars. The work combines alan's virtual world [second life], the physical world [alan and azure playing and performing], and the virtual world and physical became one with augmented reality by mark skwarek.
All three components attempt to react to each other in realtime.
