Proof As If Proof Were Needed

About Us

Proof As If Proof Were Needed

"Proof As If Proof Were Needed" is an interactive film installation by TTC Studios (Taiwan) and Blast Theory (UK). The experience takes 20 minutes.

When you enter, you step onto the floor plan of a Taiwanese house. There are four rooms to explore as shown in the diagram below: the kitchen, living room, bedroom and bathroom. When you step onto one of the rooms on the floor plan, you see that room on the projection. By moving from room to room, you can explore the house and the lives of the two people who once lived there.

The order in which you explore the rooms, and the story, is up to you.

TTC Studios

TTC Studios is an artist studio based in Taipei, founded in 2019 and run by artist Ting-Tong Chang. The studio focuses on the critical aspects of gaming and art. The studio's projects create immersive gaming experiences that attract both players and art audiences through interactive interfaces designed to engage multiple senses, allowing them to enter unique narrative environments with simple controls. By exploring the relationships between human individuals, technology and society, they embody an aesthetic stance that critiques conventionalisms in commercial games—an ideology that inevitably allows consumerism to outshine the dialogue between the player and the artist or game designer.

The studio's works have been exhibited in multiple countries and have received several international awards, including Taipei Biennial (TW), Guangzhou Triennial (CN), Asia Culture Center (KR), Yamaguchi Center for Arts and Media (JP), Wellcome Trust (UK), Compton Verney Art Gallery (UK), and Mattress Factory Museum (USA). The studio’s major awards include Taishin Arts Award (TW), Taipei Art Award (TW), Art Central RISE Award (HK), VIA Arts Prize (UK) and SXSW Immersive Special Jury Award (USA). The studio’s works can be found in the Taipei Fine Arts Museum (TW), Hong Foundation (TW), Aura Contemporary Art Foundation (JP), Hertzog Da Silva Collection (ES) and private collections in Europe, North America and Asia.
