Create Strange New Worlds

Why?

Use the real world to imagine a different one.

How?

An augmented reality app that allows you to apply real-time filters to the camera video stream and create a strange looking world from the real world around you. You can change the colors, contrast, shapes, by moving sliders on screen. When you are satisfied, you can take snapshots or record a video of your strange new world and share it online.

Clear the Clutter in Your Picture

Why?

You see something a bit away from you, but there are objects in the foreground obscuring your view.

How?

A smartphone app that uses the camera to show you the parts you want to see without the obstructing elements in the foreground. It does so by asking you to move the camera in an as large area as you can, scanning the scene up and down, left and right. You then choose the distant object you want to see, and the app will work out – using the multiple exposures it continuously takes when you move the phone around – how to build a picture without the obstructions in the foreground.

Different Photo Sequence Depending on the Viewer

Why?

It’s a gimmick that makes the viewing more enjoyable and can help sell the best print for the viewer.

How?

Before showing the sequence of photos, ask one (or more) qualifying questions. Depending on the answers the viewer will see a different sequence of the pictures. The objective is to first, help them have a better experience that is more suited for them. Second, to make the best lasting impression and have a higher chance of them buying a print. This can be done online or in a gallery.
