Digital Dreams is an interactive multimedia installation that explores sleep as a passage between wakefulness and digital dissociation. The project combines animation, light, sound, and physical space, transforming the viewer from a passive observer into an active participant.
The installation consists of two main zones:
Entrance Corridor
A tunnel formed by LED panels and reflective surfaces represents the boundary between reality and sleep. Light and animation respond to the viewer’s movement, visually “pulling” them deeper into the dream state.
Sleep Room
The central element is a large, wave-like suspended fabric that acts as a living projection surface. The animation is activated by the viewer’s presence using Kinect, while air movement causes the fabric to continuously shift, creating an amorphous and organic screen.
The projected animation unfolds through five stages of sleep, emphasizing transformation, distortion, and emotional fluidity. A continuous soundscape reinforces immersion and supports the narrative of drifting through a dream.
Digital Dreams investigates the relationship between the physical and digital, the conscious and subconscious, turning sleep into a spatial, sensory experience.
