i cinema reflection

thinking about immersion, i really did feel this on our excursion to the i cinema.
The glasses that made the work 3D really did it for me. i felt immersed in the work as the glasses make you focus on what is in front and it's effect is so great that you dont notice anything else, but when you take the glasses off, you feel you are just in a room with other people.
was the work also interactive? well i definetly thought so. the animated figures moving around the space made me feel that they knew i was there, like it was something we as humans are sharing with the animated figures. wer'e immersed into their space.
the whole room just gave me this feeling that tvisionary is now on human level. it is that developed and influential that we are one with the medium.
some negatives that i found was that, while interacting with the technology, i felt isolated. alone. when we were clicking on all the screens, i felt it has lost it's liveness because it is all there, stored and ready to be watched, and watching it alone as opposed to tv that your sharing with people all over the world, was kind of unsettling. on a whole i really enjoyed the experience, i did feel i was transported to another place when the glasses were on. however did feel a bit dizzy afterwards.
