Well , this is rather coolheaded . Artist Serafín Álvarez ’s ongoing project “ Case Study : Sci - Fi Corridor ” takes a nigh look at corridor from science fiction movies , include blockbusters like Gravity and Independence Day , classic like The twenty-four hour period the Earth Stood Still and Metropolis , and cult classics like Lifeforce and Starcrash .
Corridors — be they in a forbidding hospital , aboard an empty infinite place , or in an underground laboratory den — may not be as instantly placeable as cockpits and control way and foreign landscapes from specific film . But they are often the setting for some of science fable ’s most iconic , nail-biting , and otherwise memorable scenes . Imagine 2001 : A Space Odyssey without an cosmonaut ’s rotating lope in outer blank space , or Alien without all those veil - and - essay here and now within the Nostromo ’s hallways .
After gathering 100 of persona , Álvarez produce a 3D labyrinth . He explains toProsthetic Knowledge :
For “ Maze Walkthrough , ” I ’ve selected some of those corridor , made 3D reproductions of them , and build a virtual tangle putting them together . The final result is a desktop software that couch the user inside the maze , grant him or her to navigate and explore it , kind of a FPS video recording - biz without the shot .
It appear like the site to download the game is down at the moment ( check backhere ) , but a video walkthrough can be seenhere , and we ’ve divvy up some gifs of the artwork below . How many corridors can you identify ? [ Prosthetic KnowledgeviaCurbed ]
