Being, Between is an interactive installation that attempts to bridge distances and materialize the ephemeral traces that flow between bodies in an encounter. Participants are connected from different locations, and their biodata weave a shared experience. Transformed into tactile vibrations, their encounter becomes a dialogue between signal and flesh. What remains of connection when bodies speak through data? In an era of simulation, is the other truly there?
