transdisciplinary collaboration </i><b><i></i></b></p><p><b><i>The Wilhelminapier Experience Tour</i></b><i> </i>will be a
game-like experience taking place in public space and online (on your
mobile phone), on the border between the physical and virtual world,
mixing and re-creating the present and the past of the Wilhelminapier in
Rotterdam. The Wilhelminapier was the point of departure by the
Holland-America Line for immigrants seeking their fortunes in the new
world as well as refugees fleeing the continent during the Second World
War. Today the area is redeveloped with cultural institutes and
state-of-the-art buildings by world famous architects such as Rem
Koolhaas.</p><p>The aim of the project is to develop a working prototype that
connects the past, present and the future of the pier in close
collaboration with the local cultural institures and our vocational
school partner Zadkine. At Zadkine the project will be developed as a
participatory design project in the context of Mediawharf with students
from the Human Technology and ICT departments. We will also be working
closely with the five cultural institutes on the Wilhelminapier as well
as local residents and youth from Rotterdam South.</p><p>The project encompasses both practical and visionairy elements such
as; route navigation to the institutes and the above mentioned augmented
reality game-like experience. The Patching Zone teammembers are
encouraged to work with the rich material from the Dutch Film Museum’s
historical archives.</p><p>The Wilhelminapier experience tour is part of the Live Transmission
project with our international collaboration partners Blast Theory (UK),
Translocal (FI), OCAD University (CA). Live Transmission is supported
by the European Cultural programme.</p><div>Interested?
