Artists Chi-Hung Huang and Chun-Huang Lin created “Time Organ”, a virtual reality<\/a> installation aiming to distance us from the conventional perception of time. Their digital artwork is part of the Art&VR Gallery of the 7th edition of Recto VRso festival whose theme is “Real time \/ Virtual time”.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is time?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With<\/span> “<\/span><\/i>Time Organ”<\/a>, Chi-Hung Huang and Chun-Huang Lin want to explore our <\/span>perception of time<\/b>. “<\/span>Our artwork explores the detachment between the precise numerical concept of time and the sensory experience of the body<\/span><\/i>”, they explain. As soon as modern tools made it possible, mankind organized time with numbers. Over the ages, time has become more and more precise, introducing attoseconds, a unit of time with eighteen decimal places. But how can we humanely perceive and feel an attosecond?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Time Organ” is a way of exploring time outside of the organizational limits that mankind has built up. “<\/span>The audience needs to reconnect with their personal sensations rather than the quantified notion of time<\/span><\/i>”, the artists explain. According to them, it is essential to get rid of this <\/span>artificial precision of time<\/b> that makes it difficult to perceive, in order to regain our body’s rhythm. “<\/span>We believe that the direct sensations of the body are the true essence of time<\/span><\/i>”. How can we feel time outside of these conventions?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
