"The Raiden INST brings video documentation of the digital curatorial project ccCloud, which begins in 2022."
ccCloud is presented in the form of a guided video, using the image as an important tool for archiving and recording. Visitors can review the contents of the eleven exhibitions through the video on site, and jump back to the space at that time to analyse digital curation and the transformation of images in non-physical spaces.
Displaying images in an online exhibition is a unique experience. The image as a work itself, a part of a work, or a piece of material, whether it is a static or moving image, its boundaries will no longer be limited to scale and elevation, imagine when your virtual body is infinitely close to a huge moving canopy, or even pass through the image itself and enter another image space.
In the digital space, imagination is our tool, how to do in this time and space in the physical difficult to reach the practical effect, this is what we are eager to try. Scripts can be logically stacked to “materialise” the digital image, and by adding interaction, they can create a closer physical link with the viewer.
Exhibitors' programme
ccCloud Cryptovoxels Series of Exhibitions
ccCloud starts with a series of exhibitions based on the meta-universe platform Cryptovoxels, and continues to grow and expand in the future. It contemplates how artists, working individually or in temporary groups, will invade this territory where sensibility is limited by material reality. So, not an uninteresting illustrated animation; not a replica simulation of a building; not an ethic of material viewing.
ccCloud opened its first phase of exhibition “Coordinate Migration” on 23rd January 2022, and as of 18th November 2022 Raiden INST has conducted a total of 11 phases of exhibition activities at Cryptovoxels, with the participation of the following artists: Yixing Wang, Li Yang, Wang Xin, Old Goblin, Roy Chang, Tan Zhizhuo, Liu Jiayu, Xie Linyou, Zhang Handong, SpaceDao, TTTB, Yiju:iidrr, and the exciting virtual practice will continue to speak out.
