SMILER PORTAL 2022

(Unity x TD x Arduino)
interactive installation

Quilted frame, rear projection display, Arduino-based joystick

SMILER PORTAL invites viewers to flip between three real-time 3D environments. The installation creates a window into the lifecycle of the Smiler characters. With a soundscape over an hour long (per scene) and varying graphics, every viewer has a chance to catch a unique piece of dialog happening between the smilers in a changing landscape.
