Visualizing Unspoken Words

In order to a facilitate a productive dialogue about contemporary Canadian race, ethnicity and religious rights, my research project entails the following three components:
1- an interactive artistic installation;
2- data collection from the target audience in response to the installation using sensor-based software application;
3- public visualisation of such data in the form of computer-assisted art in order to present the results back to the community for further discussion.
This three-tier project further develops the existing interactive art models as it creates a clear one-on-one experience, proposes an anonymous and seamless method of data collection and utilizes artistic data visualization methodology.
The initial artwork consists of a mirror reflecting visual and textual elements concerning race, ethnicity and religious discrimination which then the audience respond to using the interactive controls that appear on the mirror. TO BE CONT’D
