There is plenty of space waiting for us to occupy it – Outer Space, Virtual Space, and Physical Space. What are the limitations? What are the possibilities that lay in the artistic practice of these realms?
During this workshop, participants learned how to use the open-source 3D application Blender, and Unity 3D to create their own worlds at the intersections of these realms. To achieve this, they used 3D models from the NASA catalog, and textures and footage from free online repositories to build interactive experiences. First, they learned basic 3D modeling and texturing techniques that helped them to create and modify objects. After this, they brought the objects that they’d made to (virtual) life using a game engine.
