chance machine

Chance Machine (sjansmachine) is an interactive realtime photo installation. It reflects the world we live in and the ever-increasing technologies that incorporate our daily life. The idea of Chance Machine is to bring social network ‘friending’ into real space to connect people in the real world again. Participants intuitively use emerging technologies, such as QR tags, Augmented Reality, and face detection, to ‘find new friends’ based on various aspects, customised for each purpose. (For example bio rhythm, gender input or favorite moviegenre).
This project is a collaboration between Olga Mink, Carmin Karasic & Rolf van Gelder. Also visit:sjansmachine.cage.nl
