Flip through nostalgic photos of childhood homes, parks and abandoned playgrounds – the careful reproductions of our memory’s landscapes using 3D object data. In this seamless blend between what is real and what is converted, Ryoya Usuha plays with how the technicalities of sound, graphics and other acquired data sets can all stumble and fail when enhancing the sensory overload of our pasts.
