SENSITIVE ROSE

I would like to invite you to participate of my most recent mobile interactive artwork, the SENSITIVE ROSE,
launched in nov/2008 at Nokia Trends São Paulo.

The brief concept of the work and the way of participating is explained below. It is a mobile interactive
artwork, so you will need a mobile device with a camera and a QRcode reader installed in order to participate.

SENSITIVE ROSE is an interactive compass rose formed by mobile tags (QR codes) that map people's desires. The interactions happen via cell phone and the results can be seen in a large screen projection (or computer large screen). The work intention is to "navigate" in the desires of the people, in a secret way, through a ciphered poetics of tags, which can not be deciphered with naked eyes.

If you already have a QRcode reader installed in your mobile device: interact and visualize the work at http://www.sensitiverose.com/rose.php

If you still don't have the QRcode reader installed: follow the steps below to interact and visualize the work -

1) Install a mobile tag reader (QR-codes and Datamatrix) in your cell phone or PDA - for example, the i-nigma, accessing the URL www.i-nigma.mobi in your cell phone. It must be done just once.

2) Start the reader (for example, the i-nigma) in your cell phone and scan with the camera the QRCode (mobile tag) on the side - the software will recognize the code and will show the deciphered URL to be accessed via your cell phone.

3) Visualize your interaction in the SENSITIVE ROSE through the large projection (if you were interacting with it in a art exhibition) or via computer at http://www.sensitiverose.com/rose.php.
