《旋幻土耳其》 (2010)

iTürkiye is an interactive installation that presents panoramic cinematographic events that were made on location in Turkey on behalf of the artwork YER-Türkiye. These are 360-degree spherical digital video recordings that can be viewed from various points of view within in a 3-meter diameter projection hemisphere (iDOME, developed at the UNSW iCinema Research Centre). iTürkie’s immersive ‘movies-in-theround’ invoke embodied analogies to the whirling Dervishes, the potter throwing at his wheel, and the circumambulation of visitors inside the 1453 panoramic painting. While circling around these peripatetic locations, performances and narratives, the users of this artwork make a fortuitous voyage of discovery, familiarity and encounter.

《旋幻土耳其》是以全景攝影呈現在土耳其紀錄了藝術作品《土耳其語》的一項互動裝置。觀眾可在三公尺直徑的半球投射體(iDOME)內,以多個角度欣賞其360度的球形數碼錄像。其融入式的「環迴電影」正好具體地對比旋轉舞、轉動陶輪及鄂圖曼帝國1453年攻陷君士坦丁堡一役的全景畫。當觀眾圍繞著不同的地標、表演及藝術品瀏覽時,正好踏上了一趟既熟悉又陌生、充滿未知的發現之旅。
