Video: FISHNET Act II: Shipwreck & Rescue FISHNETSTOCKINGS is an interactive installation created by digital artist Joellyn Rock, computer scientist Pete Willemsen, visual artist Alison Aune, and a crew of collaborators. FISHNETSTOCKINGS is inspired and informed by historical mermaid legends and their myriad literary variants. Both cautionary and emboldening, mermaid tales inhabit the blurred boundary between childhood longing and adulthood regret. In variants of the little mermaid tale, we find a story of the passage between worlds. Den Lille Havfrue, Hans Christian Andersen’s sacrificial rite-of-passage story sings out for alternative endings. In FISHNETSTOCKINGS, It’s your turn to voice alternative endings to the bad bargains made by little mermaids. Credits: Video and Digital Art Mashup by Joellyn Rock Music : NO MORE BLOOD, from the album NO PRISONERS (Six Degrees Records) produced by Gaudi. Written by GAUDI, DOM SMART (aka Neurodriver) Silhouette Performances by Linnea Hinkel, Mary Rebekah Myers, Henriette Söderlind, Rob Wittig, Cathy Podeszwa, Theresa Koenig, Kaity Hagen Cutouts and Visual Elements by Alison Aune, Kirsten Aune, Joellyn Rock Interactive Code by Logan Sales and Pete Willemsen FISHNETSTOCKINGS was created with the help of the Motion and Media Across Disciplines Lab (MMADLab) at University of Minnesota Duluth. Special thanks to Lisa Fitzpatrick and Justin Anderson In the gallery installation, the participatory space allows the audience to dive in and make virtual waves inside this alt version of a very old tale. A layered mix of digital video, text, silhouettes and cutout elements are motion activated with a combo of code, Processing and Kinect. Digital projections include a mashup of historical references, folk patterns, and story fragments fished from the project twitter feed. The audience has multiple modes for participation. Move your body inside the projections and interact with hybrid sea creatures that float through the narrative. Or, cast your own words into the twitter net and voice alternative endings to the bad bargains made by little mermaids.
