Sunny Day is an immersive media art that imagines and depicts sustainable tommorrow and future of technology. Viewers experience future as an inspector that is required to examine various elements of the autogenous ecosystem, in a world that has developed to a level where technology and reality are indistinguishable. The climate crisis and development of technology will be reconsidered in a hopeful future of universalized ESS, Smart Grid, Urban Wind Turbines and Pumped-Storage Hydroelectricity, and digital twinned nature.
Jonathan Lear introduced the concept of 'Radical Hope' and said, "What makes this hope radical is that it is directed toward a future goodness that transcends the current ability to understand what it is." Sunny Day will provide the immersive experience of a hopeful future that will initiate the viewers’ active participation.
