If I now look at the new technology myself, and technology is nothing different than the extension of the senses, I immediately get captured by the new opportunity to enter art or rather my paintings.
In this moment you are in the art sphere actually, it captures you directly as soon as you cross this gate and you are automatically part of this animation...or application.
Even if the viewer is deeply amazed he or she still has the possibility to act interactively with the application
and therefore to experience the painting not only flat as freeze frame but also to dive into many different planes and levels -- for this reason we use the word „immersive".
It is possible to immersively and simultaneously create art within art. Of course not in the sense of painting itself but in the sense of the given possibility to interact electronically in different orbits.
Certainly, there is the interesting discovery for all people who still read books that one identifies himself with a character from the book.
One assumes this or that or even several roles and meanwhile, if the reader is captured by the story, something like a film is generated in one's mind.
The reader actually enters that world that the writer, the artist, had cleverly prepared for us and suddenly we find ourselves in his world, we become part of the story.
And this is similar to this immersive application, as we become part of what is happening.
We can act as part of a story and decide which way to desire for.
The same tension is given in this immersive application, as we can decide ourselves even while acting and interacting what we want to do next.
This means we are directly involved and not distanced by a prefab character as in computer games, but we ourselves are part of the painting.
The difference to computer games is that the user himself becomes part of the whole and doesn't act via a heroe.
He's not someone, he is himself. He has the opportunity to dive into this immersive sphere completely.
Attention: zero gravity...
