SPIRITED RUINS

Title: Enchanted Chair


Artist: Louis Calisi

Modelling: A|W Maya

Programming: A robot was created to detect the avatars' proximity to the chair and to attach movement of the chair to the avatar

A lonely, enchanted chair haunts the Spirited Ruins palace. When a visitor arrives, the chair latches onto that visitor and follows them, making noises as it moves. As the chair is also shy, it maintains a safe distance behind the visitor and stays out of their field of view. Upon hearing the odd noises from the chair, the mystified visitor turns around to discover the source of the racket. However, no matter where the visitor turns, the timid chair stays just behind them. Other visitors may watch this interaction, but if they get too close, the chair may choose to befriend them instead.
