Responsive event-full public spaces

This proposal inserts responsive, personalized, embodied environments to the public urban space in order to animate and augment it by means of story-telling and creation of dreamlike atmosphere. The construction of a narrative that relates past times to the present and stages historical facts, traditions and legends through an artistic-oriented reinterpretation is webbed with the use of transparent and almost invisible interactive technologies to the material space. Spectacular and thematization strategies are combined with a high-standard aesthetic intervention in order to revive public urban spaces and to attract high- quality tourism.
