Ephemera is a collaborative exhibition featuring the work of RMIT University’s Animation and Interactive Media postgraduate students. Students represent four different continents and specialize in a wide array of creative, technical, interactive and artistic media.

Ephemera re-imagines the landscape of the human brain, immersing the participant in the fleeting membranes of our imagination and notions of play. Facilitated by 1st person fly-through mode, the project encourages participants to fluidly explore this landscape through a series of neuro-passages and curio-chambers that aim to evoke rather than illustrate. Ephemera examines notions of perception and the interplay between self and world reminiscent of Alice’s fall down the Rabbit hole. Culminating notions of neurology and technology, Ephemera celebrates imagination and exploration within the cartesian space of the digital sphere.
