There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

The aim of the installation was to incorporate the human body with art and architecture into a hybrid space. A volume was defined by 320 different variations of a single cell that were networked into one continuous self-supporting surface. Video and sound was used to create an anatomic volume that morphs from microscopic (under the skin) to the macroscopic. The spectator moving through the space becomes the actor by involving his or her body with the object.
The installation by Damien Valero, Jerôme Cognet, Gernot Riether and Jérôme Pougnant will be on display at the Centre Culturel Bellegarde till March 24, 2012
