The goal is to create an ambient environment at the studio that allows students to use the space to rest during their break time

Our project is an interactive installation that investigates what viral messages would look like in analog form, in public places where social interactions rarely occur anymore. Can we re-analog-ize viral information and nudge social interactions at bus stops?

Social media has quickly turned social information sharing into such a fast form that the term ‘viral’ was added to our daily vernacular. Instead of exploring how we can place social interactions on the web and create digital interactions, we wish to turn what the world has been focusing on for the last few decades and create social interactions that stem from the digital web to our daily ‘analog’ lives. More specifically, how might we ‘re-analog-ize’ the virality of social information sharing?
