Digital Experiences in Public Spaces On the Rise

The rise of smart mobile technology is increasing the demand for digital interactivity in public spaces. Marketers and artists are obliging.

This piece includes a handful of videos of projects that utilize reactive and interactive technologies to add new elements to public spaces.

"In the past few years, a host of artists, programmers and marketers have melded art and science to create new, digitally driven experiences that are redefining the way we think about our urban and personal landscapes.
