Allison Berkoy presents ONE ON ONE, an interactive multimedia installation and performance experience. Participants enter the installation environment and encounter a figurative assemblage of chair parts, enlivened with projection, audio, and computer vision. Lone participants may receive an invitation to sit in a chair facing the figure. Others may watch.
Each ONE ON ONE encounter unravels divergently and unpredictably. The figure makes requests, tells stories, and entertains; responding differently to true ONE ON ONE meetings with a single participant versus engagements with an audience. ONE ON ONE creates an illusion of complex interaction through sensor tracking, custom software, arrays of scripted responses, live internet feeds, and structured randomness.
