Description

Venomenon uses stereoscopic 3D video to explore counterfactual thinking and anti-linear or multi-linear narrative, within stunning locations in Singapore, which unfold their impressive sculpturality fully in stereoscopic 3D. According to the ancient Greek legend of Orpheus, the famous poet turned his head despite the injunction not to do so —and lost his wife. In the installation of the movie short, the audience is invited to become protagonist in the immersive environment of two opposing screens and to question the different outcomes of the decisive situation with contradicting content in the two corners of the room. The display modes force the spectators to turn their heads around, just as the protagonist of the ancient Greek myth.
