Daniel Ernst in conversation with Troy Duguid: Hands in Space. Drawing and VR.
What happens when the oldest artistic medium meets the newest ? A discussion on drawn spaces by two illustrators working in VR. At a time where VR images and spaces proliferate, drawing with gestures and artist hands have taken on a new meaning. How does it feel to surround yourself by drawn image ? How hand drawn textures differ from mechanical ? In which circumstances the famed « intention of the hand » shine ? Daniel Ernst is an illustrator who use drawings as an integral part of his VR creative process. Troy Duguid has built a practice of drawing in 3 dimensions in Titlbrush and recently released a whole story created with and in that new medium

Daniel Ernst is an interactive illustrator based in The Netherlands. After working in the game industry for multiple years he decided to put his research on storytelling through illusions and his love for everything 3D into practice and apply it to VR. This amalgamation resulted in an ongoing series of fantastical dioramas for virtual reality called The Shoebox Diorama. The series now consists of 'Blocked In', 'Der Grosse Gottlieb' and 'The Marchland'. His dioramas have a simple goal of inspiring a sense of wonder. Daniel is currently working on a full length diorama called Dear Pigeon Man.
