zenDrawing is a project developed by a group of four postgraduate students involved in a public, interactive art exhibition that took place in the science gallery in late september, 2008. ZenDrawing was completed as part of the masters program in interactive digital media at trinity college dublin. the concept was to create an immersive, responsive environment which attempts to represent the physical world in the spirit of the zen masters. it is a realm of beauty to be admired but also of mystery and illusion to be reflected upon and mollified.


vision statement:

In ZenDrawing we aim to create an electronic environment based on the ontology and philosophy of japanese zen; an ethereal nursery where ideas can be planted and concepts cultivated, but where there will also be space and time for reflection and contemplation.
