How do you collaborate with your audience to make music, images and stories, give them their 15 minutes of fame, AND make them love you forever? We will explore how bringing creative concepts and interaction design engineering together engages audiences through play. We will look at how incorporating technology such as open source software, interactive video, and 3D projection mapping invites a dialogue with the participants and the multi-media environment.
