Digital Art Live and Creative New Zealand are pleased to present the interactive exhibition Acute Self by Interrupt Collective.

Acute Self is based on Marcel Duchamp's Nude Descending Staircase and investigates how a person occupies space as they move. The viewer’s movement generates a 3 dimensional geometric shape. This shape then changes its perspective as you continue to move from side to side. The viewer can experience the virtual space they have created through their movement.

Interrupt Collective investigates how we interface with the amalgamation of the digital and physical space. Acute Self uses this concept and applies it to an interactive space. The viewer is given the opportunity to investigate and interact with their own movement as well as experience how they occupy their digital and physical space.

Interrupt is a collective of digital-media artists, interaction designers, live video performers and sonic artists working across a range of live performance projects and installations. The binding principle of the collective is to generate experimental work that explores the boundaries between architecture, video, performance, sound and interaction. Recently the members of Interrupt have been involved in Performance Arcade 2012, StageSpace 2011, WGTN LUX 2011, The Performance Arcade 2011, Auckland Festival of Arts, Wellington International Arts Festival, and Tiger Translate. Interrupt is based in Wellington, includes Johann Nortje, Harry Silver, Stuart Foster, Angus Woodhams and works in collaboration with Ben Jack.
