10.000 Moving Cities AR

With the Augmented Reality App 10.000 Moving Cities – Same but Different one moves between the imaginary buildings via smartphone and tablet and participates in the digital communication streams and social movements of our time by means of inserted Social Media Posts. The buildings can be destroyed and rebuilt by the users. But beware! Everyone sees what the other is doing from different perspectives. The more buildings disappear, the more creatures appear.

10.000 Moving Cities – Same but Different, AR focuses on how places are constantly changing, language diversity, plant and animal species are diminishing and buildings, shopping centres and cities are becoming more and more similar. Places are emerging that could be anywhere in the world without a real local identity. This process is accelerated by technological progress, fast means of transport and communication, and the Internet.
