The characteristic bark scales testify to the brisk cell production and show us a freeze frame of the constant change of a living being. This project combines the haptics of analogue bark exhibits with interactive real-time renderings via projection and in virtual space, as well as with ambient noise from where the pieces were found. Touching the bark, various actions are triggered, such as a punctual wavering at the hand position, fine particles stream out of the surface and follow the hand. In virtual reality, this digital bark is positioned on a digital table in the exact same place as a real table with a physical piece in real space. The confusion between visual and haptic experience plays with the viewer‘s expectations and intensifies the perception of the material. Information is offered on three layers: the exhibition, folding posters with the most important dates and a website with detailed information.
