Voidopolis Mustatea Kat
A hybrid digital artistic and literary project in the form of an augmented reality book, which retells Dante's Inferno as if it were set in pandemic-ravaged New York City.Voidopolis is a digital performance about loss and memory presented as an augmented reality (AR) book with a limited lifespan. It features images that are created by digitally "wiping" humans from stock photography and text that is generated without the letter "e"--in homage to Oulipo author Georges Perec's A Void, a 300-page novel written entirely without the letter--by The book loosely retells the story of Dante's Inferno as if it were the dystopic experience of wandering through New York City during the pandemic; instead of Virgil, however, the narrator is guided through this modern hellscape by a caustic hobo named Nikita.Voidopolis is meant to culminate in loss.
