A dimly lit bedroom bathed in red light, with two people lying on a bed surrounded by cluttered furniture, clothes, and personal items. The space feels intimate and chaotic, with curtains filtering the warm glow.

Our latest work, Proof As If Proof Were Needed, made in collaboration with Ting-Tong Chang, will get its world premiere at SXSW XR Experience, 9-11 March.

Proof As If Proof Were Needed is an interactive single screen video installation which invites visitors to move around the floor plan of a Taiwanese house. As you step into a room, the video projection switches to show that room.

As you explore the house, you discover the history of a couple who lived there. They have returned to their deserted home to tidy up the secrets they hold from each other. 

The work is both a closed loop and a story that unfolds progressively. The order in which you explore the rooms opens up different interpretations.  

Proof As If Proof Were Needed is a vivid cinematic work that follows the logic of dreams as you wander through the debris of a relationship breakdown.


Proof As If Proof Were Needed is a collaboration by Ting-Tong Chang and Blast Theory
