WindowZoos: Open Call

About WindowZoos

For the exhibition "Window Zoos", the DAW International is looking for
a few additional artworks that use Augmented Reality and Geo Tagged
images. The project "WindowZoos" is inspired by an image of a car
driving down Singapore’s legendary Orchard Road with its windshield
plastered with stickers of popular cartoon characters. In keeping with
the idea of the car and the experience it provides those inside it, a
concept was developed to transform Orchard Road into a virtual
exhibition by overlaying the entire road with geo-tagged media common
to game technologies and augmented reality systems. Like the car's
windshield, participants' mobile device screens become windows onto
the virtual world that is emerging around us, expanding our notion of
what constitutes public space and how art can be exhibited. Whether
traveling by vehicle or by foot, artworks will augment the "stop and
go" journey down the road adding to the hustle and bustle of the
people and the glare and flash of window displays and neon signs.

Submission Procedure

Thematically, the theme and content of the works is open. We
particularly welcome works that are suited for presentation in
Singapore. All artworks must be finished and submitted and peer
reviewed by the appointed jury. Only the best-finished and publicly
accessible work will be accepted and included in the show. All
accepted works will be included on a comprehensive tour map of the
works will be provided with QR Code keying so that visitors can easily
select the works positioned along the segments of Orchard Road in
Singapore.
