Aura Garden: Collective and Collaborative Aesthetics of Light Sculpting in Virtual Reality Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • 2018 Copyright is held by the owner/author(s). Aura Garden is a Virtual Reality environment where participants can create their own light sculptures using a physical wand and customizable tools. They can also create light sculptures by themselves or with a person in a networked virtual environment using various visual/temporal effects. In the Aura Garden, participants can experience light sculptures from different perspectives, in static or animation, and with different surface effects. Each sculpture will remain in the space and be part of the Aura Garden unless a participant decides to remove it. The real journey starts when a participant navigates around the space and discovers other participants creations. We use consumer virtual reality product, HTC VIVE: a head-mounted display, a controller, and a motion tracker.
