folly is delighted to invite proposals from artists/artist groups for our developing project, Portable Pixel Playground, a unique and imaginative environment that offers children and young people alternative play opportunities with art and technology. The playground encourages children to get active, think differently, collaborate and take risks through being exposed to new concepts and challenges created by artists.
Portable Pixel Playground is a modular set of equipment and artists' commissions for use in public settings such as shopping centres, galleries and railway stations. Portable Pixel Playground encourages young people to use everyday technologies in new and creative ways, providing them with interactive, physical and hands-on new experiences of art and technology.
