PoeceptibleVR: Reinterpreting Chinese Traditional Calligraphic Poetry in VR with Multiple Scales and Senses

摘要

PoeceptibleVR reinterprets Chinese ancient poetry as a multi-sensorial cross-scale aesthetic experience in virtual reality. It enhances, or rather restores the Chinese traditional poem, Chinese characters and character parts to their animated three-dimensional form, allowing viewers to “walk” through and “feel” the poem coming to life. PoeceptibleVR is intended to enable a global audience with little to no knowledge of the Chinese language to appreciate Chinese traditional poetry. It also invites the Chinese to defamiliarize with and rediscover their cultural heritage.
