Shaping Futures:
Unlocking new realities with Augmented Reality
An educational art project by Maureen Bachaus in cooperation with STRUQT
Welcome!
In this workshop, you will explore Augmented Reality (AR) not just as a technology, but as a tool for storytelling, art, and social impact.
The AR artwork you are about to experience is placed in the public space of the university. It invites you to look differently at your surroundings — and at the role art and culture can play in society. Please follow the step-by-step instructions below!
