Augmented (hyper)Reality: Domestic Robocop from Keiichi Matsuda on Vimeo.




Matsuda is currently studying at London's Bartlett School of Architecture as part of the Unit 15 group, where students use animation and motion graphics to investigate new architectural possibilities.

[This is] a film produced for my final year Masters in Architecture, part of a larger project about the social and architectural consequences of new media and augmented reality."
