Exploring Different Ways of Navigating Emotionally-responsive Artwork in Immersive Virtual Environments

In this paper, we propose a work-in-progress virtual reality system to explore how different ways of navigating emotionally-responsive artwork can change one’s phenomenal experience of the artwork in an immersive virtual reality environment. Two sets of navigational scenarios are designed from artwork generated from our parameterized NPR (non-photorealistic rendering) system ePainterly. Preliminary studies are carried out to observe how different navigational environments affect one’s viewing experience to artwork generated through a NPR system.
