Metaverse Divinations
By KIMATICA
Light & Shadow Guardians collection Metaverse Divinations by Kimatica Studio is a featured project at [CODAME](/orgs/codame) [ART+TECH Festival](/orgs/codame/events/codame-art-tech-festival-2013) (2024) #Essence Multiverse Divinations is a series of augmented reality ritualistic performances. Kimatica have used ritual design as a framework for creating this performative series in which characters and scenes represent light and shadow archetypes, exploring the collective subconscious, contemporary altars and dream-like states. It draws on the constant inner battle between light and shadow, creating a space where to reflect into all the aspects of our subconscious mind in order to achieve spiritual balance. Each piece has been created in real-time during a recording session with the performers using Kimatica’s self-developed augmented reality system; no visual effects were added in post-production. The visuals respond to the presence, colour and movement in the scene. Kimatica’s first NFTs have been created with the support of Arts Council England. These artworks constitute an exploration into methods for creating innovative mixed reality performative experiences, representing new contemporary rituals that enhance interconnectedness and inspire introspection.
