△URA — AURA Digital Gallery by Sarnia de la Maré
🌌 Coming Soon from AURA Digital Gallery:
The First Embedded Exhibition — A Museum You Can Keep Forever
By Sarnia de la Maré FRSA
Art history turns a corner this season with the launch of AURA Embedded Exhibitions — a new format that merges fine art, poetry, and moving image inside a single collectible digital edition. Unlike online virtual galleries that depend on servers and log-ins, these self-contained exhibitions live on your device or USB forever.
🎥 Display & Projection Guide — AURA Embedded Exhibitions
Each AURA Embedded Exhibition is mastered in full HD (1080p, H.264) so that it can be experienced far beyond the tablet screen.
The collection may be viewed on any modern display:
-
4K & HD TVs: insert the enclosed USB or connect your tablet or laptop via HDMI / AirPlay.
The video components scale perfectly to 4 K, preserving cinematic clarity and colour depth. -
Projectors: mirror from a Mac, iPad, or PC to create a wall-sized installation.
-
Computers & Tablets: open the EPUB edition in Apple Books or any EPUB3 reader for the interactive version with embedded sound and navigation.
-
Headphones or studio monitors are recommended for the full Tale Teller Club audio fidelity.
This edition contains every moving image and soundtrack within the file itself—no streaming, no dependence on online servers.
Your copy is both artwork and archive: a portable gallery designed to live on through any screen, any decade.💿 A Gallery Inside a Book
The first in the series, “The Pasha Years — A Retrospective Photography Gallery,” will arrive in early 2026. Each page is a black-lit chamber where artworks appear under cinematic lighting, accompanied by embedded music and spoken-word pieces from the Tale Teller Club catalogue.
Every photograph, poem, and video clip is stored directly inside the publication — not streamed, not linked — creating a museum in miniature. Once downloaded, the exhibition requires no internet connection. It exists as an object, not a website.
“I wanted to remove the dependency on the cloud,” explains Sarnia. “Collectors should own the light itself — not just the link to it.”
⚙️ How It Works
-
Kindle / EPUB Edition: a fixed-layout digital book with embedded audio and video.
-
USB Collector’s Edition: the full “Armageddon” version — higher-bitrate media, liner notes, and interactive entry sequences such as the AURA Doors animation.
-
Ownership: each edition carries its own catalogue number and digital signature. Once purchased, it functions independently of any platform.
-
Preservation: the same files are deposited with the British Library Digital Deposit and Internet Archive to ensure cultural continuity.
Collectors will be able to experience the work offline, in perpetuity — an idea that redefines what it means to own digital art.
🕯️ Why It Matters
Traditional online exhibitions vanish when hosting lapses or links break. AURA’s embedded format guarantees survival even if platforms collapse. It bridges fine art, publishing, and archiving — the artist taking custodianship of her own future.
This model allows Sarnia de la Maré FRSA to stage exhibitions instantly, without physical space or curatorial scheduling. Every new series — photography, digital paintings, experimental film — can premiere as a standalone, purchasable exhibition experience.
🔮 For Collectors and Fans
-
Portability: view the exhibition anywhere — tablet, laptop, or your AURA USB edition.
-
Authenticity: each release signed and numbered; limited-run drives hand-finished in black-and-gold packaging.
-
Continuity: built-in music and motion mean no reliance on future servers or app updates.
-
Legacy: your copy becomes part of a distributed archive of contemporary art innovation.
AURA Embedded Exhibitions blur the boundary between book, gallery, and time capsule — a revolutionary step toward sustainable, sovereign art ownership.
