First layer: AI-generated selfies and a world of objects mapped with AI selfies illustrate the synthetic perception in the digital realm. The AI selfies are generated through machine learning trained with a dataset of 500 selfies. They reveal perceptual differences between humans and machines.
Second layer: Choreography and improvisation performances translate reality into the digital realm. Sensors on the dancer's motion capture suit are randomly assigned to virtual objects, resulting in a lack of familiarity during the performance. This absence of cues adds to the mystery of object movements.
Last layer: The audience in the studio serves as witnesses to the process of interaction and amalgamation between the digital and physical realities. They observe the captivating fusion between these two realms.
