INTEGRATION

INTEGRATION is a real-time / interactive art project by Sameh Al Tawil 2013

in this project everyone stands in front of the digital screen and play with the surrounding virtual primitive particle shapes – which are symbolizing the integration factors such as the language, religion, heritage, folklore, Etc…
the inspector or the player will be able to collect the particles inside his body or reject them outside

the concept of this project is highlighting some integration thoughts in a game format
” What can expatriates do to integrate themselves into the hosting country’s culture and society?
it is down to the individual and not the responsibility of others to ‘force’ people to integrate. or Should someone put more pressure on those coming to live to integrate?

In this project, i’ve used the Kinect sensor as a motion detector + MaxMsp
