This post reflect three chosen ideas for a screen-based experience
Idea 1 – Silhouette Walking
The idea behind the silhouette walking is to show how different people move through the city each day. This means both showing the flow of people passing each day and how the also do different activities on the way. By using silhuettes it is anonymous who the specific people are but instead focusing on their behavior through movements and make it explicit to other people who pass each day.
The scene or location of the screen-based experience could be in the MRT or other long walkways (Marina Bay Sands)
Technology Ideas – Inferred sensors, other motion sensors, temperature sensors (body temperature) which change into silhouettes on the screen

Idea 2 – Let the buildings speak
The idea with Let the buildings speak is to tell the user something about a place or building through sounds, stories and music which relates to the given place.
The scene or location in general around the city
Technology Ideas – Google maps technology combined with recorded sounds, music, stories – which can be changed over a period. This should be driven through and app to mobile devices and by using the camera and somekind of recognition technology to specific places.

Idea 3 – Interactive graffiti wall
The idea is to make the city picture be a bit more playful and colorful by allowing people to spray graffiti on a screen wall by using their phones or devices as spray cans. They will also have different options of colors and brushes. This allows the user to interact with other people by message or paints.
