Non Human Device #03 is the 3rd part of a series of interactive installations where experimental audiovisual devices are explored. They are based on the speculative narrative of the project BORIS CHIMP 504, an audiovisual live performance that tells the adventures of a chimp cosmonaut in space. Each installation is based on a new extraterrestrial object found by Boris, during his missions through the deep space.
In this version the audience is able to interact with an reactive infinite mirror, and experience the effects it causes on the space-time continuum.
