Infinity Game

Visual and numeric representations of infinity through the eyes of different cultures are the reference for an art exhibition that is also a game. A game made by paintings, coding, video mapping and infinity boxes.

The project is a collaboration between visual artist Vanessa Rosa, architect Verônica Natividade and creative coder Wenqi Li.

The visitors were invited into the quest of looking for hidden numbers across the exhibition site, inside the infinity boxes. Each number is capable of transforming the projection mapping installation in a unique way. If the visitor finds them all, they win a prize: a laser-cut stencil and an email with the research behind the project.

The project was first shown at Babycastles, NYC, in August 2017. It is based on research on ethnomathematics, a culturally contextualized approach to technology.

This project had the collaboration of Verônica Natividade’s students: Camila Rodriguez and especially Marcelo Chaves.
