Synopsis:
“Wired: Gosiwon” is a 3D animated VR film that portrays three characters living in Gosiwon, which are low-cost, single-room accommodations in South Korea that are often susceptible to fires. Wired figures are used to symbolize the entangled and fragile nature of individuals in contemporary life and to question the complex realities and substances emerging from emptiness.

The film integrates generative AI for textures and machine learning systems for sound and background music as assets that belong in a virtual world. By leveraging AI’s imperfections, the film reveals the contradictions and complexities of data within the physical and digital realities that we inhabit. The current version is a 360-degree cinematic experience, and there will be different versions incorporating real-time navigation and interaction.
