It invites the viewers to explore the powers of nature in a journey inspired by \u201clunar gardening\u201d and set in a Japanese Zen garden.\n\nFrom outside the viewer can step barefoot sensing the simplicity of natural materials: sand, rocks, tree stump, and minimalist light that represents the moon and is animated along with the moon cycles. Yet once the viewer enters the virtual reality experience the moon and garden become \u201calive\u201d through a physics simulation that visualises the gravitational pull among the moon and earth, the moisture under the viewers feet, and eventually the tree stump having its tissues grow into a beautiful black pine tree. \n\nThe virtual narrative is 1:1 connected with the physical installation, with the outside light following the inside moon cycle. Also there are heat and fan sensors installed inside the garden elements that get activated while the virtual moisture increases and the virtual plant grows.\n\nA playground of dualities, chaos and order, light and dark, ruled by Phoebe the Goddess  of the Moon.","space":"\u201cPhoebe\u2019s playground\u201d is composed by a physical installation of a minimalistic square \u201cgarden\u201d 3*3 , covered with sand. Two rocks and one tree stump (70*70 cm) are placed on the sand. The installation requires a wall in one of its sides to place the light source (moon) \nArduino sensors will be incorporated in the rocks (heat pad sensors) and stump (a fan).\nThere will also be 2 required headsets.\nA small extra space for storing backup materials for the sensors and charging will be required.","artists_proposal":null,"members":[{"names":"Thomas","surname":"O'Reilly","email":"thomas.r.oreilly@gmail.com","dni_type":"Other","dni":"507396345","address":"31 Edith Rd, Oxford, OX14QB","city":"Oxford","nacionality":"British","country_id":"81","birthdate":"1991-05-07T23:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1991-05-07T23:00:00.000Z","telephone":"+447913760727","web":"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/_toreilly\/"}],"lang":"en","status":"ok","video_link_password":null,"video_link":null,"audio_link_password":null,"audio_link":null,"images_link_password":null,"images_link":null,"cellphone":null,"description":null,"estimated_budget":null,"complementary_info":null,"names":"Despoina","surname":"Zachariadou","email":"zacha.despoina@gmail.com","dni_type":"Other","dni":"AM1466244","address":"8 Kedleston Walk","city":"London","nacionality":"Greek","country_id":"81","birthdate":"1992-05-21T23:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1992-05-21T23:00:00.000Z","telephone":"+447849358462","web":"https:\/\/dzachariadou0420171.myportfolio.com\/"}
