Light+ Alternate Realities 2: Terminal 3

In episode 2, Lighthouse Senior Producer Sian Habell-Aili talks to artist Asad J. Malik, creator of Terminal 3. The interactive augmented reality piece explores contemporary Muslim identities in the U.S. through the lens of an airport interrogation. The viewer is asked to step into the uncanny to directly interrogate, and determine the fate of, the hologram passenger before them.

In September 2018, for the Brighton Digital Festival, Lighthouse presented selected works from the Sheffield Doc/Fest Alternate Realities exhibition. Exploring the themes of borders, identity, and loss, the works each show how immersive and interactive technologies enable us to interpret and engage with socio-political infrastructures, storytelling and the interface of physical and digital worlds.
