About the project
Space Messengers is an immersive and educational mixed reality installation that projects the collective ‘space’ messages and voices of youth participants sharing their thoughts and wishes for a sustainable interplanetary future. Using data visualization tools, the messages will be livestreamed and projected along with their animated silhouettes onto the building or wall, and also into a VR platform that you can visit for an interactive VR experience, combined with an immersive soundscape of collected natural sounds from earth and space. The live audience can also send their own space messages in real time via this website or at the installation site.
What message of hope would you like to share with the next generation? These messages become part of a data bank that travels from city to city, radiating messages of hope to and from our future youth leaders.
