A vaulted cellar with four transverse arches and five bays beneath a Gründerzeit house in Neulerchenfeld: workroom, archive, experimental setup and XR SPACE. Sculpture, scan, model and performance are made here; on 29 Dec 2020 the room itself became a scan.
The vaulted cellar from its own real scan · real-time gravitational lens
The BASEMENT is not remodelled but built from its own real scan of 29 Dec 2020. At the centre of the room, under the crown of the vault, sits a black hole – not as emptiness but as productive condensation: everything that was ever in the Basement falls towards the event horizon and returns as information.
Neulerchenfelder Straße 11 · 1160 Vienna-Ottakring · 48.21079° N 16.33732° E. Vaulted cellar with four transverse arches, five vault bays, cellar windows in the lunettes and an arched doorway with corridor. Studio, workshop and XR lab since 1998.
Textured scan “Studio XR-Space – XARS Hyperobjekt” (14 photo textures) and the point cloud sampled from it with 419,993 coloured points, congruent with the mesh. Plus 25 photos from 08/2020 and the original sound of the seven XR SPACE recordings.
Real scan, point cloud, digital twin (±5–10 cm), black hole with photon ring and two accretion discs, time ring with 29 year marks, lab stations, hyperobjects 2020–2022 in orbit. Animation “BLACK_HOLE_220s” with camera path.
View (orbit, walk W A S D, 220 s tour, plan with section, AR table 1:16), live (camera, microphone – the level drives the accretion, everything stays local), files and sources, work states, lighting, add projection/screen/speaker/spotlight. Output: still HD/4K, video with sound, GLB, JSON, USDZ, WebXR.
Eight work states float in the studio. Measure with the crosshair, then decide: preserve at the archive or condense at the hole. World time runs from 1998 to 2026 in 12 minutes; near the hole proper time runs slower (√(1 − rₛ/r)). At the end you get your own work as PNG, GLB and USDZ.
The game exports your own work body as GLB and USDZ for AR Quick Look; the lab places the studio as an AR table at 1:16.
29 year marks circle the hole; the time dilation t′ = t · √(1 − rₛ/r) lies over the room: the closer to the work, the slower time passes.
