MOLMOL KUO: My name is Molmol.
I am an artist, an
educator, and a researcher,
and we have a studio together.
ZACH LIEBERMAN: And my
name is Zach Lieberman.
I'm also an artist and
educator, and we're
interested in using technology
that is code and electronics,
but to create artistic work.
We're doing a residency here
at the Google Arts & Culture Lab.
Our goal was to
create an app that
allows you to capture
elements in the world
and then paint
with them in space.
We've been exploring
AR, Augmented Reality,
and, in particular,
using a device,
like using a phone or a
tablet, and moving it in space.
And so you take a photograph
and the photograph
lives in that location.
You move back, and
the photograph's
sort of hovering in space.
MOLMOL KUO: We're really
excited about augmented reality
because it opens up
a way for artists
to tell stories visually.
ZACH LIEBERMAN:
Weird Cuts is a tool
that allows you to
take photographs,
to basically cut up the
world into different pieces.
Users can download the app and
capture elements in the world
and put them in space in
completely new and unexpected
ways.
So it's great to
be here at Google.
And for us, that's
really exciting.
