VJ Conference: Super-Structure

Urich Lau (SG)

Digitization and archiving are acts of preservation of our collective consciousness, of heritage and history. This immersive virtual reality work titled VJ Conference: Super-Structure is an investigation of the history of Singapore through its colonial buildings that held various branches of government and now house natonal museums and galleries. Depicted as a functionless new “museum” in the metaverse, these gazetted institutions subvert original functions within the artwork by means of reconstructed fragments that form new imaginings.
