Wilson

Lee Jangwon (KR)

Ars Electronica Center, Foyer

What should the future look like when the evolution of operating systems (OS) converge upon a specific form? The artist imagines the sun. Wilson is a representation of the sun as a personified OS. Technology behind any operating system feels more like an antithesis of nature, but the artist sees similarities between nature and the ultimately-evolved form of operating systems. Simultaneously, the artist also used aspects of virtual reality to meet the audience half-way while they experience OS environments, presenting scenes where the virtual and actual coexist.
