新前沿吸引艺术爱好者进入虚拟世界

New Frontier Draws Art Lovers into Virtual World

Welcome to the spaceship.This virtual venue overlooking planet earth and the international space station, allows festival goers, digital avatars to attend performances,watch movies, participate in presentations and mingle all that remotely, through a computer or a virtual reality headset.Shari Frilot, curator of the New Frontier Exhibition, says the mission this year was to bring the Sundance community together in the metaverse,a computer generated environment where users can interact.You go to space garden which is where you find the portal to the cinema house.You are inside of an art house theater fashion like the Egyptian.The Egyptian is the festivals iconic movie theater on park city Utahs main street.Its digital equivalent can hold 100 digital avatars.And youre sitting and youre with people and you can talk, and the presentation will start.Mostly were in there with artists.Maybe its the day that cosmogen is happening.Once a performance or a film ends, visitors can head to the gallery where they can view exhibits.Some can be experienced best with virtual reality headsets.One of these projects is called gondwana.It is a 24 hour simulation of the rainforest daintree in Australia, and its powered by dynamic climate change data.And the longer youre in there, every 12 minutes is like a year.You start to see the rainforests change and depending on how many people are in there will determine how it changes.And you can go in and out of it throughout the day.The 24 hour cycle and see it and witnessed it where it started and where it might end.At the spaceships film party, visitors and artists meet, exchange ideas and talk about films and projects.This digital platform allows people to not only watch but also interact, Frilot says.

欢迎来到宇宙飞船。这个俯瞰地球和国际空间站的虚拟场馆允许参加音乐节的人、数字化身参加表演，通过电脑或虚拟现实耳机远程观看电影、参与演示和交流。新前沿展览的策展人Shari Frilot表示，今年的任务是将圣丹斯社区聚集在虚拟世界，这是一个计算机生成的环境，用户可以在此进行互动。你去太空花园，在那里你可以找到通往电影院的入口。你置身于艺术之家剧院的时尚之中，就像埃及人一样。埃及人电影院是节日的标志性电影院，位于犹他州的主要街道公园城。它的数字版本可以容纳100个数字化身。你和人们坐在一起，你可以说话，然后演讲就开始了。我们大部分时间都是和艺术家在一起。也许就是宇宙发生的那一天。一旦一场表演或一部电影结束，参观者就可以前往画廊，在那里他们可以观看展品。有些人可以通过虚拟现实耳机体验到最好的体验。其中一个项目叫做冈瓦那。这是对澳大利亚热带雨林丹恩树的24小时模拟，由动态气候变化数据驱动。你在里面待的时间较长，每12分钟就相当于一年。你开始看到热带雨林在变化，这取决于那里有多少人，这将决定它是如何变化的。你可以全天进出。24小时的循环可以看见它的开始和结束。在飞船电影晚会上，参观者和艺术家见面，交流想法，谈论电影和项目。Frilot说，这个数字平台让人们不仅可以观看，还可以互动。

An activity made less frequent due to the pandemic and video streaming.It is important to have our technology support what is human and how we relate to one another,and how we can transcend physical boundaries to have access to what makes us people and what makes us thrive in a that collective spirit.

由于疫情和视频流，活动变得不那么频繁。重要的是让我们的技术来支持真人，我们如何与他人联系，以及我们如何才能超越物质界限，接触到是什么造就了我们，是什么让我们在这种集体精神中茁壮成长。

Frilot says nothing can replace shared experiencing of art in a physical space.Not everybody in the audience jumps up and pressures spacebar to say hi,but she says these new technologies can serve culture by making storytelling accessible, and connecting people around the world.

Frilot说，没有什么可以取代在物理空间中共享的艺术体验。并不是所有观众都可以起来去按下空格键和别人打招呼，但她表示，这些新技术可以通过让讲故事变得无障碍，并将世界各地的人们联系起来，为文化服务。
