CHROMA ELEMENTS

INTRODUCTION

The Chroma Elements serve a distinct purpose within the Open Space Museum project by showcasing methods for presenting and preserving Born Digital Artworks, particularly Augmented Reality (AR) Artworks. The Chroma Elements include the AR Portals and the Chroma Tower.

The Chroma Tower consists of space frame structures constructed using 25 mm square aluminum tubing and colorful acrylic glass, featuring patterns inspired by ancient motifs. These elements are designed to act as color perception modifiers, enhancing the viewer's interaction with digital artworks through the interplay of colored light and form. More Info >

The AR Portal Elements are simple plates attached to the space frames within the Open Space Museum. Containing QR codes, the AR Portals serve as gateways to information about the displayed artworks and enable visitors to access AR artworks directly on their own smart devices. More Info >

Both the Chroma Tower and AR Portals function as tools for modifying color perception—acting as interactive "color mixers" that enhance the public’s visual experience. The Chroma Tower, in particular, supports ongoing research into the presentation and preservation of Born Digital Artworks, offering valuable insights into the interrelationship between natural light and digital aesthetics.
