InterBox is an interactive art installation that explores the perception of self-image through a heterotopic mirror interface across different temporalities. Inspired by Michel Foucault’s concept of heterotopia, the installation features a webcam inside an acrylic box mounted on a stand. Spectators can open and rotate the box, revealing a transformed self-portrait through real-time image processing.
