The Travels of Mariko Horo

The following are demo recordings excerpted from the 3D interactive experience. The image quality is reduced by the video compression process. For the true image quality please see the screenshots under the link "Description and Images."

Please note that each of these movies represent only one of many possible experiences with the virtual world, as the real experience is interactive and therefore depends on the choices and actions of the individual voyager. Additionally, The Travels of Mariko Horo is a room installation to be shown on a large screen (3m x 4m or 9'x12'), an immersive experience that is in no way conveyed by viewing a tiny movie on a computer monitor!
