The Experiment Game by Wieden + Kennedy London translates Honda’s cog ad in a truely appropriate and innovative way into a game experience.

Angel falls at Victoria Station

A sound subway map
The New York subway map becomes an interactive instrument: “At www.mta.me, Conductor turns the New York subway system into an interactive string instrument. Using the MTA’s actual subway schedule, the piece begins in realtime by spawning trains which departed in the last minute, then continues accelerating through a 24 hour loop. The visuals are based on Massimo Vignelli’s 1972 diagram.”

RGB filtered wallpaper
Carnovsky, the artist duo Francesco Rugi and Silvia Quintanilla, created this mesmerising installation with large scale illustrations as wallpaper for the RGB exhibition at Johanssen Gallery, Direktorenhaus, Berlin. When lit with different coloured lights image layers are revealed. I would love wallpaper like this for my home.
