PORTFOLIO
Street Life – A new way to live on the streets of Venice ( iPhone App)
Street Life is an iPhone application created for street artists who want to perform in Venice’s public spaces, and for people who want to enjoy shows and performances as they go about their normal lives.
The app allows street artists to improvise performances, sharing them with other unknown artists simultaneously in different parts of the city. Spectators can enjoy the performances and have the opportunity to be involved in the show and interact with the artists using headphones and iPhone.

Seeweed – Mediated Reality Infographic (Installation)
Seeweed is a nocturnal installation in the Rialto fish market. Combined with the suggestive atmosphere revealed by this place at night, it plays on feelings and sensations to provoke thoughts about the biosphere in the Venice lagoon its invasive organisms over recent years.

Epiphany – A moment of sudden revelation (Android App)
Venice is a city with so many hidden things to experience that is hard to find them in a short period of time. Our app, Epiphany, aims to help people share with other users their “special moments” in the city, which can be experienced again when the same conditions occur.
We want to encourage people to go out and “live” the city, rather than just looking at other people’s experiences through an app.
Sensors are used to determine the specific state of the city when an experience is shared, and to check which experiences are available at the time someone uses the app.
