Mars Romance

Using a romanticized narrative between the rover and the drone on Mars as a clue, the VR experience invites the viewer to explore visual and cultural factors in multi-layers of astronomical image production. Through a first-person perspective of the rover, the audience completes photo mission tasks with the drone. While hearing conversational voices from Earth's Mission Control, the audience hears discussions regarding extension and fusion of the human body with imaging machines, reaching boundaries and the solitary aesthetics of life's existence.
