"The Museum of Touch & Feel " - Anaglyphic
(4 min., stop-motion animation, 2009)

This version of the film requires red/cyan glasses to see 3D effect.
For alternate versions, scroll down.

“The Museum of Touch and Feel” addresses the way in which we
connect with the past through objects and spaces.  In this museum the
guests would touch the artifacts instead of looking at them. The
creator of the museum is now gone, but the building remains as a
physical extension of her, a virtual body which the narrator inhabits. 

Presented stereoscopically, the museum is an ephemeral sculpture, a
synaesthetic realm which viewers “touch” using their eyes as fingers.

Camera/ Light: Patrick Rusk, Amy Bench; Music/Audio: Matthew Thies
