Live Inventory is a 3D animation by Leo Castañeda, an award-winning Miami-based artist. Combining game-engine techniques with 3D-scan models from The Wolfsonian's collection, Castañeda brings artworks to life, as machine-age items from the exhibition A Universe of Things: Micky Wolfson Collects mutate into surreal virtual entities bound within uncanny display cases. In his mind-bending video, Castañeda dissolves the frontiers between objects, characters, and space, probing the impact of digitization on the evolution of everyday designs and our preconceptions about the human experience.
