»Passage Park« is an interactive animation in which the viewers navigate an imaginary 3-D landscape of memories. Like in a computer game, the scenes are rendered in real time and ordered in ever-new combinations but not in a fixed loop.
Whereas the camera searches for its way automatically, viewers can use the mouse to look around in all directions and can change the lighting via mouse-click: by pressing the mouse button, a searchlight beam becomes colored light.
The inventory of »Passage Park« consists of a growing collection of its own 3-D models and photographs, which the program selects at random and arranges in order. Whereas the photographs show spatial situations, the 3-D objects are movable set pieces from the artists’ forays and researches. Changed in their dimensions and positions, they show up in the various levels as surrealistic arrangements, and then immediately disappear again.
Since 2014, different levels of this work have been presented in a number of exhibitions. The current version, »#7: relocate«, was extended to include ZKM-specific 3-D objects and photographs especially for the »Open Codes« exhibition.
