Evolvo Radix is a concept environment, in which gravity is questioned. The newest theories and outlandish ideas of anti-gravity are still in the movies. Although the notion of anti-gravity is on the far away horizon, there is no reason why we can not use existing technology and know how to essentially create the illusion of the non-existence of gravity.
Evovlo Radix is such an attempt to bend reality, or at least to feed the perception of the observer to such a level that he/she suspends reality and serves the immediate wishful belief that the gravity is non-existing.
What Evolvo Radix is presenting, is a collection of geometrical solutions, that naturally produce gravity forces, but in Evolvo Radix they only appear through the illusion of their existence. The general theory of relativity describes gravity as a geometric property of space and time. Evolvo Radix is presenting objects and their gravity relationship relative to time of recording and time of projecting, which could happen with time delay, pre-arranged scenarios or in this first case, real time.
It is a fact that most of our perceptions are engraved in us by our physical experience, consciously or unconsciously. So one way to upset the status quo, is to present the familiar in a completely new and unexpected way; in a context that enables the observer to make natural unconscious assumptions engraved in the very physical fabric of his/her being.
We have conceptualized about 10 various projects, that we will present here.
This is the first Evolvo Radix model: "levi'tabox"
Although the object is firmly attached to the sloping surface, the created illusion of a void between the object and the base is so real that the mind reads only the absence of the gravity.
Here is a brief explanation of the actual physical model that produces the illusion:
The space between the object and the base on its four sides is covered with segmented LCD screens or holographic prism sheet. Three cameras are installed on each of the four sides, which are part of the surface screens (fig.1).
The cameras from each side are simultaneously feeding the screen at their opposite side.
The cameras are arranged so that the outer two film at 45 degree angles, and the center one at 90.
The silver screen (prism sheet with crystalline background) informs the observer of what is happening beyond the base attachment, on the other side of the object, thus creating the illusion of a void.
There is also some graphic manipulating of the transmitted camera signal to help the illusion by including the effect of the light occlusion that happens inside the void.
The simultaneous feed of three separate cameras that cover their entire service area allows for the image information to be spread over the multiple hologram prisms of the screen, so a moving observer is always informed about the image as if it is a real one (fig. 2).
