Genjitsu ( 現実) _ HYPERMANILARAMA

•

Genjitsu is a project made for a group gallery exhibition named "HYPERMANILARAMA"

Genjitsu aims to hypothetically display the reality that each inhabitant perceives or even creates of Manila. Also display the changes and interactions made by STEAM through each individuals reality of Manila. These interactions are characterized by the glitches and effects made in the video.

Hypermanilarama is about bringing together a diverse group of artists with interdisciplinary background—an architect, a programmer, a motion designer, a citizen scientist, a machine maker, a game estate designer and a virtual reality landscape designer—exploring mostly through new technologies, the exhibition Hypermanilarama surveys the chaotic and almost whimsical landscape of progress and ruins that is Megalopolis Manila through the emerging trajectory of the intersection of art and STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Architecture and Mathematics). The artistic interpretation ranges from being suggestive, a narrative, a subversion, a simulation, a research study, futurist or a speculative history. The exhibition presents an artistic inquiry into philosophy including metaphysics. It is a precursor of STEAM Projects, a series of art shows which focuses on art- science affinities, following a trend in contemporary art that poeticizes science.

Organized by STEAM Projects.
