Soundshelters is an installation that is based around the topic of coexistence, designed by artist Samir Ayyad. It is an interactive multi-channel sound space that connects people in Linz and in Gaza. The “real sound” in Linz will be overlaid by sound travelling from Gaza to Linz and vice versa. There may be sounds of fighting or shooting from Gaza to Linz, or perhaps the sound of singing birds from Linz to Gaza. The main goal of Soundshelters is to create a space of mutual understanding, compassion, and maybe even love.
It is interesting because it creates an altered sense of awareness using sound, which may create a deeper impact.
Change.Clothes is an installation for D&G’s stores where people can change the clothes of 3 visualised D&G models using clothing from the store. By physically moving clothing items, it triggers the models to take off and put on the particular piece of clothing. Change Clothes could be used for promoting D&G’s collections, and creates a point for consumers to interact with the installation, with other consumers, and also with D&G. The images of models are displayed by projecting interactive video on semi-transparent surfaces. The videos will be seen from both inside and outside the store; hence it could also be a form of window display. (more…)
