The Bouncing Eye is an artistic reflection on the overwhelming flow of information in a state of constant transition. Using 3D animation and creative coding, Rui creates a 2D liminal space to recontextualize the classic bouncing DVD logo, a symbol of idle in-betweenness. Viewers will encounter a 3D-rendered running avatar from multiple angles, each intertwining and entangling with others to generate kaleidoscopic, otherworldly vibrant shapes. The iconic bouncing DVD logo is replaced by a realistic eye, constantly roaming, heightening the contrast between virtual and real, subjective and objective, and nostalgia and strangeness. This juxtaposition mirrors the overwhelming sensation of existing in today’s fragmented digital landscape, where perception is in constant flux and overstimulated.
