Overview

At a time we’re feeling the repercussions of the global environmental crisis more than ever before, OUR COMMON HOME fuses art and interaction technology to send a message about the urgency of climate action. Over a four-chapter journey, this large-scale public art exhibition uses artificial intelligence and computer vision to precisely track the movement and behaviour of people engaging with large interactive displays. Whether tracking their faces, their bodies, their hands, or the flashlights of their mobile phones, the overarching metaphor is one: our individual decisions have a global impact.

Goals

Navy Pier wanted to activate its venue for a long period of time. Starting during Thanksgiving and going until the New Year, the public will be playing with the LED monolith while reflecting on our impact on climate change.
