Examples: Inter Discommunication Machine

This is one of my favorites projects that I had experience in terms of interactive art. Why? Because it was the project that made me experience something that we don't experience in our everyday life in terms of perception: see my self, see me outside of my body ( a bit trip mode but amazing ) and experience the feel of the sense of my body at the same time that i was seeing by body walking around in my front. It was scary but an amazing experience.

Two players wear head-mounted video cameras and backpack transmitters with wings. Incredibly, out of this clunky gear springs a delightful, futuristic play world. The most fantastic element of this interactive paradise is its visual trickery. Each player views his or her own image retransmitted through the other player's headgear.

"Once in his world, our old standards and perceptions become mere illusions that we can manipulate and enjoy as we will. "
