It is a virtual reality installation exploring the nebulous and poetic domain of contemporary physics. Metaphorically, its environments are part of a universe of mystery and magic. — five virtual worlds with poetically agitated vibrate laminae that undulate in mutable fluctuations. The undulating surfaces are metaphors of Sthephen Hawking's multidimensional branes. They are thick-less membranes with incomprehensible densities at the abstract and indistinct confines of mathematics, creating a sensitive possibility explored by consciousness. It is the first Java application built with the framework programmed with the Transmídia grant by Itau Cultural Institute in 2003. It explores mathematical membranes made possible by computer graphics. They are possible realities, only speculated as existing within the mathematical Universe—this artwork used stereoscopic polarization glasses in the Java3D CAVE at Calgary University, Canada, in 2003.
