Daes Eage 对比 Toronto Zoo 的使用情况和统计数据

Welcome to Daes Eage! Aim the camera of your mobile device at the image above to view the augmented reality animation. There are four augmented reality works in the series, Irises Listening, Eros Kissing, Mycelium, and Daes Eage, which playfully draw upon recent studies of the communicative behaviours of plants and fungi through sound and enzymes. The animated content reveals anthropomorphic botanical characters that are constructed from elements of existing plant life. Themes of animism and the flow of information via phenomena that operate outside of human perception are whimsically enacted within the interactions of the animated characters. The movement of plants and phototropism is animated and personified in Daes Eage. This augmented reality animation is named after the old English term from which ‘daisy’ is believed to derive. Daes Eage, translates to Day’s Eye, possibly descriptive of the way the daisy opens at dawn. Daes Eage features several figures seemingly basking in an implied sun, some languidly, while others peer out of the augmented tableau, shielding their eyes from the glare as though searching for the source of daylight.
