A COLOSSAL WAVE is a multi-location mixed reality art installation exploring human impact. It brings AR and VR into a public art context.
It's the result of a creative collaboration between UK artists Marshmallow Laser Feast and Canadian artists Presstube & Dpt. with the audio by Headspace Studio.
The team set out to put creativity into the hands of the public - celebrating user generated art - created digitally in the form of 'Voicefruit' and physically in the form of a gong sculpted by a thousand bowling balls.

SHARED EXPERIENCES:

INDOORS, people put on VR headsets and are invited to stand around a sculpture which in VR is an interactive portal to the outside world. They sing to create 3D generative art.
OUTDOORS, visitors stand under 4 VR umbrellas and wait for a 5th member of the public to climb a tower and drop a bowling ball from a great height onto a gong target. When the ball meets the gong, it triggers a virtual COLOSSAL WAVE that rages over the 4 VR umbrellas.

Experience the creation of Voice Fruit in the Jacuzzi of Despair in your own living room with A Colossal Wave's AR app. For Android and IOS.
