Interactive City Scanning
Art-Tech
Urban Connections: Interactive City Scanning is an experimental project by WeCreate International and partners that delves into the innovative realm of city scanning, inspired by groundbreaking work at MIT's Media Lab. Utilizing the powerful capabilities of TouchDesigner, we transform complex data into immersive experiences that unveil the unseen connections within the city, inviting participants to engage with their urban environment in new and exciting ways.
PURPOSE
The aim here is to push the boundaries of what city scanning can do. By harnessing the power of TouchDesigner and pairing it with Google’s systems, we’re uncovering the potential of data and programming to create immersive experiences. This project isn’t just about collecting data; it’s about understanding our cities on a deeper level and sparking new conversations about urban life.
CREATING THE EXPERIENCE
As participants engage with the installation, they’ll interact with visualizations that bring city data to life. Imagine exploring your surroundings through dynamic displays that highlight connections you never noticed before. It’s an opportunity to connect art and technology in a way that makes the urban landscape feel vibrant and alive. There are many potential applications, we can scan building structures, roads, we can make projection mapping installations and offer a fresh perspective to audiences.
CONCLUSION
In a nutshell, Interactive City Scanning is an experimental venture that opens up a world of possibilities. By blending data, art, and technology, we’re not just scanning cities; we’re reimagining how we experience them. This project invites everyone to engage with their environment, encouraging curiosity and creativity in the urban space.
