TALKING PLACES | MR installation | GIFF & ADC Switzerland | 2026
‘Talking Places’ is a mixed reality installation for two to four visitors, presented at the Digital Night of the Geneva International Film Festival (GIFF). Visitors answer questions about immersive storytelling, about their wishes and their worries, by walking into glowing answers placed in the room.
Utilizing mixed reality and artificial intelligence, the work writes the questions for each group from the reasons its visitors give for being there. At the end, a white sphere shows what connects the group, a black sphere what sets them apart. The installation addresses questions such as: How does a conversation change when the only input is where you stand?
Presented at GIFF Digital Night, Geneva.
First version presented at ADC Switzerland Creative Days, Zurich.
