BUDDHA HOTEL, 2000

Alternative Museum Digital Art Commission

buddhahotel.com

BuddhaHotel is a place where the digital nomad can recuperate. Inspired by Tibetan Thanka painting which is believed to have the power to heal through visual art forms, BuddhaHotel combines Eastern medicine with contemporary forms of illness.Through these healing rooms moving images surround the walls to inhibit a balance of changing perspectives.

The site uses VRML, a 3D navigation program and requires patience and high bandwidth. To properly view the site you must wait a minute for the images to load on the walls before navigating. Failure to wait will result in the program to malfunction or the images never to load.
