オープンソースの視線入力装置「EyeWriter」を利用し、会場に設置された10以上のモニターに映り込むモニターを見るだけで、次々とモニターを渡り歩いていくことができる、視線による空間の跳躍を体験できるインスタレーション。視線入力装置における、見ることと操作することの間にある齟齬や、公共空間 における見る／見られる関係をテーマに、大規模なインスタレーションとして実施された。
The EyeWalker is an installation in which the participant experiences jumping through space, using the open-source eye-tracking system Eyewriter. Looking into any of 10 monitors in terminals placed throughout the installation site, the participant's eyeline is tracked, and their viewing perspective is shifted to the subject of their gaze, darting among the 10 different terminals in the space. A play on the variance between looking and controlling for eye-tracking systems, the piece is also a commentary on the relationship between seeing and being seen in public space.
