We would like to especially thank ViewSonic, a global leader in video solutions, for providing five LS860WU i 5,000 ANSI Lumens WUXGA short throw projectors for this festival. With a short throw ratio, 1.1x optical zoom, wide lens shift, and 360° projection is perfect for create amazing immersive dome experiences. This system will be available to digital artists everywhere to visit the tribe and share their work during this exhibit.

The theme for this festival is “Through The Eyes Of The Tribesman.” In aboriginal culture the tribesman hunter represents the male, symbolizing warriors and a wisdom for survival as well as sharing. Carrying just a few knives, some rice, and salt, they enter the forest to fight against the natural elements and bring something home for their family. The tribesman tries to find the prey provided for by God, and brings it back to the tribe to share with family and friends.

Through The Eyes Of The Tribesman shows the essence of this spirit – a revered respect for nature, choosing their prey with compassion, offering thanks to the food of the earth, respecting tradition and their elders, a generous heart to share with others, and having the courage to not give up in the face of difficulties.

A tribesman in the forest require sharp senses, clear judgement, decisive action, courage and toughness, being focused and quiet. This ancient wisdom needs to be learned and passed on.

A tribal elder once said, “The hardest thing to hunt is the human heart." This exhibit uses the latest technology to remind us all of the wisdom of nature and the environment. Especially today in 2020, in the face of ecological catastrophes such as wildfires, rainstorms, and typhoons, humans need to learn to respect nature. City people need to learn how to respect the laws of nature in the mountains, and not to damage or selfishly take away anything for their own convenience.

Every tree, every plant, every flower has their own language and life. Every insect and creature have their right to live. Human beings cannot continue to harm and destroy this earth we all live in. We need to learn how to coexist with nature.

Rebalance Renaissance hopes that through this MOTUS INTERNATIONAL FULLDOME FESTIVAL, Through The Eyes Of The Tribesman, we can bring a new source of art into the mountains, rejuvenate city people’s interest in nature, and build a healthy connection between the city and the tribe.
