Dioramas of the Unused

Francesca Tremulo & Eszter Várhidi / Denmark, Italy & Hungary

You enter a virtual wasteland, a collection of digital art pieces with little to no recognition found at the bottom of asset stores. What stories hide behind the massive amount of art laying around online? Listen to artists talking about their creative intentions in a project arguing for the value of creation independent of its recognition.

Dioramas of the Unused is a virtual museum exhibiting thrown-away assets. Visitors may traverse the rooms filled with 3D models, digital paintings, pixel art, and AI generated images collected from the bottom of digital asset stores, art sharing platforms, and personal folders. They can listen to the creative intentions and anecdotes behind some of these objects told by their creators. Dioramas of the Unused concerns itself with finding a connecting point between archiving, documenting, and repurposing digital artifacts. It aims at highlighting the effort and value behind creation no matter its results. Adding a focus on storytelling, this work is a take on projects such as Forgotify, No Likes Yet, and Petit Tube, which all aim at making user discover music, photos or videos that would otherwise be forgotten.
