Acqua Alta / A pop-up book in augmented reality

11/7/2019

Posting this as it is interesting...
But the book will/am a bit pricey (they almost reached the Kickstarter goal).
Augmented reality story time...

Acqua Alta - Crossing the mirror is a pop-up book whose drawings and paper volumes are the décor of a story, only visible in augmented reality.
Looking through a tablet or a smartphone, the ten double-pages of the book become the stage for a short dance performance - thanks to a custom-made augmented reality application.

Do like me some Diamond Dogs and Low once in awhile (and yes love the film "The man who fell to earth" with all of it's blemishes...) but am not a fanatic but it does seem like a must buy for big fans as it seems to be well done and have a lot of fascinating content.
If anyone reading this please let us know in the comment section what impression this gave you.

Yapps so his virtual ghost birthday was yesterday on the 8th of January so happy birthday to you Bowie wherever you are now!

“David Bowie is” is a virtual interpretation of the blockbuster exhibition that originated in London’s Victoria and Albert Museum in 2013 and toured the world for five years to record-breaking attendance and international acclaim.

This augmented reality exhibition tells the story of Bowie’s life and career through costumes, videos, photography, drawings, storyboards, music scores, handwritten lyrics, letters, and diary entries. It displays over 400 items from the iconic exhibition in a sequence of 25 newly designed virtual exhibition rooms, with many never before seen items.
