Abstract
Title of my work is ‘Playing with Remine.’ Playing means playing or interacting with each other.
There are two reasons why I design this work.
Currently, I’m designing my website using interactive pictures and videos which visitors can play with them by clicking. Because I unsatisfied with traditional way to communicare with audiences only through the art piece of the artist is one- sided communication.
If you click my character on the website, you can meet Kim Hae-min(me) sitting in the room. Kim Hae-min doesn’t has any attention to visiotors and doing her own habits. But if visitors matches certain conditions which attracts Kim Hae-min she beings to interreact with visitors. After that text messages pops up and visitors can choice questions to ask they want. Kim Hae-min’s response depends on which question you choose. The response can be kind,ignoring the questions, explain the work, or talk about society. In other words, it is a reactive character with various events.
Motivation of this project is also my personal experience. I’ve felt that there’s actually not a lot of communication between people, and how can I be honest, comfortable and funny?
In other way i also plan to expand this work to installation project. The audience passes by and sees Kim Hae-min. The audience enters the installation space and asks questions to the character. And then, if you don’t agree or if you have conflicting values, you move on to the mini-game format. ‘Battle with Remine’ I’m thinking of trying this piece with interactive projection mapping. In the mini-game, I’m going to put various devices to solve the conflicts between me and visitors.
