Working from influences like Tony Oursler, Sarah Sze and Aaron Koblin, I worked to create a space with wall-to-wall projections that could create an intimate escape from mundane activities. Participants are invited to walk around or sit in the space, while the projections are meditative, the soundscape makes for a more unnerving experience as it is a mixture of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sound effects, drug commercials and ambient noise.
