Welcome to Hybrid Pool, an installation that combines digital and physical elements to create a interactive experience. Here, we rethink how we interact with shared spaces, making them more dynamic and inclusive.
Through collaboration, we rediscover the value of collective experiences and creativity. With Hybrid Pool, we empower everyone to contribute their own rules, to not have any kind of power structures also for the hybrid pool. By embracing our role as each other's senses—seeing, hearing, feeling—we navigate a space where diverse interpretations come together to shape our shared understanding.
And in our exploration of communication beyond language, we open up new opportunities for dialogue and connection, transcending barriers and fostering a deeper sense of each other.
We have wanted make the users interact with our modules and generate visuals in digital environment. By doing that our approach is to use ESP8266 Modules equipped with WiFi in order to calculate proximity among them.
Schwimmring Module is connected to our computer in order to receive data.
Noodles is stationed in the other side of the room to receive proximity from the portable devices.
The other 3 modules(Springer, Kopfsprung and Bikini is hanged from the ceiling in order to interact with user bodies
This project research explores the concept of the hybrid POOL installation, which combines digital and physical elements to create an interactive and inclusive learning environment.
Inspired by the idea of 'Taking a Line for a Walk' and influenced by Donna Haraway's work, the project aims to redefine traditional hierarchies and empower participants to actively contribute to the design process.
Through a series of workshops, discussions, and hands-on exercises, diverse perspectives from architecture, media architecture, public arts, and media arts are brought together to shape a collective understanding of hybrid learning spaces. The deliberate loss of control and implementation of rules within the workshops foster a sense of equality and collaboration, dismantling hierarchical structures. The output of the POOL includes the creation of a collective junkspace, re-remembering shared experiences, producing inclusive frameworks, delivering hierarchies, and communicating without verbal language. The hybrid POOL installation offers a dynamic and inclusive approach to learning and design, encouraging participants to navigate a collaborative landscape where diverse perspectives converge to shape a shared understanding.
The purpose of the Hybrid POOL installation is to create a dynamic and inclusive learning environment by combining digital and physical elements. It aims to rethink how we interact with shared spaces and promote collaboration, collective experiences, and creativity. The installation empowers participants to contribute their own rules and ideas, dismantling traditional power structures. It also encourages communication beyond verbal language, fostering dialogue and connection among diverse perspectives. The Hybrid Pool installation seeks to create a space where participants actively shape the trajectory of the workshops and navigate a collaborative landscape together.
