Descriptions & Essays
"ETERNAL SHELVES" is Stenger's first Web Based VR work programmed in early VRML 1.0, silent and un-animated.
3D words expressing the most intense emotions in a human history (exile, transe, etc.) are sitting on gray shelves, creating sparks of meaning for eternity.
12 environments.
