The Pulse Art + Technology Festival enters its ninth year with a multisensory mix of fun and innovative technology-based art. Come to PULSE’s opening night to experience virtual reality in two interactive works made for the Oculus Rift VR system, including the award-winning game PaperDude VR by the Canadian design group Globacore, and Keith Roberson’s creepy-cool Apalachicola Night Anomaly. See people become bees in artist Katja Loher’s video sculpture exhibition and lecture. Thursday night see a dance performance with Purring Tiger’s interactive projection Mizaru, and try it yourself afterward. Make constellations in the interactive installation Wondrous by SCAD physical computing students and enjoy art GIFs by internationally-known internet artists. Friday night features an amazing performance by the renowned multimedia artist Miwa Matreyek, who combines animation and live action. Matreyek will perform two of her works in the historic Telfair Academy Rotunda, while the Savannah-based artist Switzon Wigfall III will animate the Academy’s outdoor sculptures with projections.
