Gold Environment

From the contextual awareness series: “Gold Environments”. Augmented Reality App using deep learning to create site-specific meshes all over the real place. By Chiara Passa 2022
Gold Environment is an augmented reality application using a pre-trained deep learning algorithms to create site-specific meshes all over the real place. Meanwhile the meshes' vertices generate a series of randomly nomadic objects growing up from the wall and the floor. The artwork highlights how augmented reality alters our perceptual dimension of reality, subtracting, adding, blurring and modifying reality to increase the imagination in our real dimension. The audience, in fact, through tablets and smartphones, is invited to look over the real surface, exploring the liminal duality between tangible and virtual place.
Gold Environment recreates an ontological vision of the place by speculating on human perception, where the machine creates a generative object-oriented gold texture in continuous transformation
and develops all around the viewer. Get ready to enter a hybrid world, another dimension but simultaneous to the IRL one!
USAGE:
Button Stop/Run AR to generate AI gold meshes all over the real place.
Button Clear Meshes to stop meshes and regenerate new objects growing up from the new chunks.
Tap the screen to generate random sound effects all over objects and meshes.
