The Quasar series comprises of three sculptural helmets and interactive experiences, fifteen photographs and three VR screen captures. Each of the sculptural helmets houses a VR headset, which is connected to a PC. Quasar is the first part in this new series of works by FIELD, and describes the spirit of pioneering as three human archetypes—each with their own means of perception, rationale and communication. The project explores visions of a near future and what it will mean to be human.
