Smart glasses, AR, immersive realities—technologies destined to radically transform our everyday lives and public spaces. But who shapes this new urban landscape: major corporations or us, as a society?
In this workshop, we explore this question together. Using a browser-based augmented reality application, we experiment directly within the urban environment: we leave behind virtual drawings, images, and text, while considering the possibilities, opportunities, and challenges presented by a digitally enhanced public space.
We don’t have ready-made answers. We are interested in your perspective: How do you envision the future? What does a digital public space need to remain open, creative, and accessible to everyone? All you need is a smartphone and a power bank.
This school workshop is part of the WDC project An Alle! (To Everyone!). The An Alle! exhibition will be on display at the pavilion throughout the entire period.
