Polytropolis

Polytropolis is a game where two players have to work together to build a monument for the village people. The installation prevents both players to build and look inside the box at the same time. Therefore, one has to give instructions while the other is building the monument. Many parts of the playing field are connected through magnetic sensors and electrical motors to a digital interface, which gives instructions to the players and reacts to changes on the playing field and can trigger events such as an earth quake. The project combines physical elements and their haptic feelings with virtual elements and their «magic» feelings.
