Notes:
Orlan and Stelarc are both performance artists who have explored the intersection of art, technology, and the body in their work. Both artists have used virtual reality (VR) in their performances and installations, and their work has been influential in the development of VR as an artistic medium.
Orlan, also known as Orlan-Cara, is a French artist who was born in 1947. She is known for her performances and installations that explore the relationship between the body and technology, often using VR and other digital media. Orlan’s work often deals with issues of identity, gender, and the body, and she has used a variety of media in her art, including video, photography, sculpture, and performance.
Stelarc is an Australian performance artist and cyberneticist who was born in 1946. He is known for his performances and installations that explore the intersection of the body, technology, and the internet. Stelarc has used VR and other digital media in his work, and his performances often involve the use of robotics and other cybernetic technologies.
Both Orlan and Stelarc have been influential figures in the development of VR as an artistic medium, and their work has helped to push the boundaries of what is possible with this technology. Their use of VR and other digital media in their performances has helped to shape the way that these technologies are understood and used in the art world.
