title = "UNMAKEABLELOVE: Gaming technologies for the cybernetic theatre Re-Actor",
abstract = "This paper describes a new 6-screen stereographic display system Re-Actor, together with an interactive augmented reality artwork UNMAKEABLELOVE. The artwork was developed using extended Microsoft{\textregistered} XNA{\texttrademark} game-engine technology and over 300 motion-capture sequences to produce an algorithmically driven world of virtual characters. The real-time application uses 6 interactive torches to reveal a world of thirty 'humans', inspired by the Samuel Beckett piece of prose The Lost Ones (1972). Infrared cameras capture the torch users and display the real-time video inside the virtual world, as a strategy of augmentation. This paper explains both the technologies of the display system Re-Actor and the artwork together with philosophical underpinning of UNMAKEABLELOVE as a future form of situated cybernetic theatre and the potential for large-scale stereographic situated gaming.",
