Abstract
The human body has historically been a constant source of fascination in the arts and sciences. With the advent of digital computing technology, the debate over the virtues and disadvantages of physical versus virtual bodies has increased exponentially. One of the greatest challenges is translating the “essence” of human movement into the digital realm from physical reality. Radiant Soma emphasizes the ephemerality of human movement by visualizing motion capture data with lasers within the context of Korean shamanism and Stone Tape theory. The installation of light and phosphorescence transforms inanimate objects into metaphorical shamans emitting a constant stream of lively spirits.
