When cultural memories and hi-tech art meet on the cavernous canvas of the NTT walls, a new realm of visual imagination emerges.
Dimension Plus╳T.A.P.Project reCONNECT 2024: NEW CANVAS uses the lofty, undulating space of the NTT as a 19-meter high canvas for AI computations, coupled with an enveloping audio experience to create a new world of visuals and sound.
NEW CANVAS incorporates visual representations of the cultural and natural landscape of Taiwan and Hong Kong, live performance of electronic and classical crossover music, and AI-generated images into an immersive performance, taking audiences into a futuristic new world of sensory experiences.
