I feel that Interactive artworks are able to communicate and include the audiences more as it allows visitors to be part of the installation. This allows the visitors to be more involved in the artwork and thus having a lasting memory of the installation.

Tiger & Turtle – Magic Mountain by Heike Mutter and Ulrich Genth

Its made out of metal of which it resembles a theme-park thrill ride, with its soaring height and extreme loops. From afar, it looks like a roller coaster but when you get closer to view it, it is actually interactive and walk-able, allowing visitors to fully engage with it. Being 45 m tall, it allows visitors to have a great view of the surrounding landscapes. It has curved flights of stairs and led lit handrails that illuminated the artwork at night and allows visitors to visit at night.

 

21 Balançoires by Design team Daily Tous Les Jours (Mouna Andraos and Melissa Mongiat)

It is made up of swings that light up and played tunes when the visitors swing on the swings. Each swing played a different pre-recorded sound, some being piano notes and sounds from a xylophone. Whenever more swings are played at the same time, the greater the song will be.  The installation’s location is at Montreal, Quebec in the Quartier des Spectacles.
