“…Installations addressing simultaneous full-body interaction with the façade by a large number of people -therefore promoting multiple digital encounters -are a rare occurrence (Body Movies, by Rafael Lozano-Hemmer [14], being a notable example). We perceive this as a challenge potentially overlooked by the current research in the field and argue that embodied interaction represents an effective option in addressing such a challenge.…”

“…We would argue that this distributed performance, combined with the system's ability to support multiple simultaneous participants, has the potential to promote higher levels of public participation, both in number of participants and in the depth of their involvement with the augmented environment. As in other implementations [3,14,21], participants in Solstice LAMP engaged in social interaction via triangulation [16], i.e. mediated by the digital interface.…”

In this paper we describe the design of a large-scale interactive light and music intervention on a corporate high rise building and its surrounding urban area. Designing for interaction with media façades has traditionally posed challenges regarding proxemics, scale of the augmented architecture and placement of interactive spaces. With the increasing availability and affordability of interactive technologies, factors such as playability and tangibility are assumed not only to be present but also to enable richer collective experiences. We propose a new approach for interaction with large media façades employing embodied audio-visual interaction at the floor level. That way, the floor level serves as proxy for interacting with the media façade whilst facilitating social encounters. We discuss aspects considered during different phases of the project development and derive principles for connecting zones of proxemics, promoting encounters by distributing the performance, designing for urban activation and isolating implementation concerns.

“…[20] The artist calls this phenomenon of relational architecture. [15] The intuitive approach to spontaneous real-time interaction utilised by Body Movies played a pioneering role in shaping the design of urban media art in the subsequent two decades. The public square was transformed into a playground, offering the local people a new relationship with the city.…”

Since the early 2000s, cultural institutions have been instrumental in reshaping public spaces, fostering community engagement, and nurturing artistic innovation. Central to these initiatives are audience interaction and participation concepts, yet their definitions and applications in urban media art remain nebulous. This article endeavours to demystify these terms, examining the distinct characteristics and intersections of interactive and participatory art within urban contexts. A particular emphasis is placed on artworks that harmonise both elements, exploring the motivations and outcomes of this synthesis. The case study of We Are The Clouds serves as a focal point, exemplifying how strategic integration of interaction and participation can enhance community connection and reinvigorate public spaces. Through this analysis, the paper underscores the transformative power of urban media artworks in redefining neighbourhood experiences, empowering local voices, and revitalising the essence of public realms.

“…There are other attempts to define the contemporary architecture based on differing perspectives. Relevant examples include but not limited to the pioneer-innovative architecture (advanced architecture) by Gausa et al (2003), new digital architectures by Kolarevic (2003), quantum architecture by Jencks (1997), and relational architecture by Lozano-Hemmer (1999).…”

Architectural sphere evolved into a different direction within the last three decades due to both the development of digital tools and the economic boom, accompanied by the discourses suggesting that radical changes were underway in design and production. In the context thereof, the present study aimed to understand, what today's leading architects considered design input, what factors led them to form, and the conceptual nature of the association they established between form and content. The available texts inked by the renowned architects on their public buildings built between 1990-2020 were accessed via their own web sites and publications. Those briefs were reviewed using textual analysis based on issue and concept notions, remaining loyal to the intra-text context. The conceptual information was then transformed into conceptual categories. The architects were selected among the renowned architects, where the Google Hits method was used to determine the status of being renowned. Accordingly, a total 1146 architectural briefs by 66 renowned architects on their public buildings were analyzed with an aim to transparently see, what was defined as a problem by the designer and by which concepts the designer sought solutions to identified problems. The approaches of recent architects suggested that the architectural discipline maintained its ancient design paradigms, including the quest for function, surroundings, and form, but the way those parameters were addressed and questioned was changed. Furthermore, the spatial configuration-oriented, ecology-oriented, and city-oriented concepts came to the fore, while metaphor and analogy were frequently used. The present study was limited to the own briefs of the renowned architects on public buildings designed between 1990-2020. Unlike the previous studies in the relevant literature, which focused on recent architectural approaches, the present study addressed the subject based on the architects' own texts. Thus, the architect's expression but not the author's interpretation comes to the fore, contributing in the objectivity of the study.
