About

This interactive work examines our presence within the current landscape and plays with the relationship between physical and digital as movement shifts perceptions of reality. An XBOX Kinect v2 camera that feeds information to a laptop will sit in front of a large inflatable rear-projection screen that acquires presence and movement from the public and transmits the information onto the screen in front of them providing a direct correlation of engagement and interactivity for the viewer. The interactive installation will run for a duration of 5 hours for Nuit Blanche Wpg 2023 within the Forks in Winnipeg, MB.

Casey Koyczan / Sidii Media Inc.

To create with unrestricted freedom. To make the unrealistic a reality. To imagine environments unbound by the laws of physics. To imagine our people and stories in the future.

Casey Koyczan is a Dene interdisciplinary artist from Yellowknife, NT, that uses various mediums to communicate how culture and technology can grow together in order for us to develop a better understanding of who we are, where we come from, and what we will be. He creates with whatever tools necessary to bring an idea to fruition, and specializes in sculpture, installation, 3D/VR/AR/360, video, and audio works such as music, soundscapes and film scores.

He is an international artist that has participated in many residencies, exhibits, festivals and collaborations in parts of the world such as Finland, Colombia, Chile, Mexico, The Netherlands, The USA, and the UK. He is also a musician, producer, filmmaker, actor/narrator, and advocate for future generations of artists and musicians.

He has a Multimedia Production diploma from Lethbridge College, a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Thompson Rivers University, and a Master of Fine Arts degree from the University of Manitoba.
