Myron W. Krueger (US)
Golden Nica Prix Ars Electronica 1990 "Interaktive Kunst"

The goal of "Videoplace" was not to create an art work that happened to be interactive, but to raise interactivity itself to the level of an art medium. This required redefining the human interface so that the system perceived the movements of participants' bodies rather than receiving commands from them via traditional input devices. Upon enter the "Videoplace" installation, visitors are confronted with their own images projected into a simple graphic scene in which everthing that occurs is a response to their actions.
