Viewing Virtual Bats in Bushwick, Brooklyn, NY
Juxtaposition par excellence: Brooklyn’s ungentrified artist enclave of Bushwick may look tame at first sight, but simply peer through the frame of an augmented-reality-ready smartphone to watch the neighborhood come alive with virtual unicorns, a giant labyrinth, psychedelic swirls, floating picture frames, iconic portraits, and bats. Following close on the heels of the “uninvited” augmented-reality art show strategically positioned via GPS coordinates within the physical walls of the Museum of Modern Art, the Bushwick Augmented Reality Intervention is another permanent and ongoing exhibition of 2D and 3D-modeled artworks, this time positioned at various outdoor venues. Take the L subway line to Morgan Avenue to begin your journey in this augmented version of bats in the belfry.
