STRINGS in webXR

VR & networked haptics performance

Can we touch and move each
other on the internet?

STRINGS is a series of works inviting remote audiences to interact with a dancer wearing connected electronic devices on each arm and leg.

In this version of STRINGS created specifically for webXR, the actions of the audience in the virtual world affect the physical body of the dancer through networked wearables. Using this interactive system, the audience collectively decides how the dancer should move. Each instruction acts as invisible strings to (re)animate a living and dancing body.
