3RD
An interactive installation by Monobanda and DUS Architects that gives players a new perspective on reality.
3RD is inspired by the increased use of social media in public space, and the changing way we perceive the world around us.
People are invited to put on wearable bird-like sculptures. Through a video screen inside these ‘helmets’ people see themselves from a distance. They become their own digital alter ego.
This creates a surreal sensation where reality starts to feel like a digital game environment.
Furthermore, the anonymity of using helmets makes people search for physical contact, thereby linking the physical and virtual domain. Within 3RD a new social interaction starts to form.
