Project Details

"'wango:IW' is a technology-based art installation that evolves through participant interaction. It explores the capabilities of signs, symbols, and languages to device a model for communication in a networked, accessible VRML environment." 
 
"Participants engage in direct, interior, aisle, and network exploration; help create signs and symbols by responding to associated imagery; and create visually networked spaces for interaction and communication." 
 
"Interaction is based on HTML, VRML, and trigger-based installation devices."
