John Naccarato is an inter-disciplinary artist currently based out of Montreal Canada. His work involves the creation and development of systems and objects in the form of immersive, interactive installations which act to create critical discourse on the intersection of art, media and technology and their impact on perception, identity, presence and social structures. Recently he has begun exploring the social, psychological and psychogeographical possibilities and implications of Augmented Reality (AR). During the Conflux Festival in New York, 2010, the artist as part of an interventionist group created an Augmented Reality Virtual exhibit at the MoMa, NYC. 2010. Uninvited of course by MoMa, the group wanted to question not only AR’s role in public and private spaces and its increasing fragmentation of what constitutes reality but also how AR allows artists the ability to bypass the white cube and its curators.
