Outer Space IP
2001 - 2003
Documentation
The idea underlying the Outer Space IP came as a
result of the special nature of the year 2001 and can be
understood as a reference to the epoch-making science-fiction
movie "2001 - A Space Odyssey". We have given up
control with traditional menus through the use of the avatar Pantha and for
the first time, much attention was paid to the inclusion of
voices.

SHORTCUTS
Escape Brasil is
an audio-visual animation lasting about 9 minutes, dedicated to
”researching” the Milky Way and is based on a
composition by Caqueira. The song visually leads to Pluto, the
planet that is furthest away from our sun. The difficulty in
retaining the audience attention during such a long period
prompted us to build in both an interactive and a
non-interactive level. It is thus possible to change from the
main level, the space ship, to either the observation level or
to the level where one actively directs the trip. By the way,
only the main level leads in the end to the target, i.e. the
landing on Pluto
