Installations at teamLab Borderless Jeddah
– Rapidly Rotating Bouncing Spheres in the Caterpillar House: An interactive space where people can bounce on high-speed rotating spheres that stop and become easier to step on when approached. The spheres emit light and create visual effects as people interact with them.
– Multi Jumping Universe: A flexible surface where multiple people can jump together, creating distortions that attract stardust and create new stars. This installation offers a unique experience of space and time manipulation.
– Soft Terrain in Granular Topography – A Whole Year per Year: A three-dimensional slope with granules of light that flow and create patterns based on the seasons. Visitors’ movements influence the light granules, creating an immersive, ever-changing landscape.
– Aerial Climbing through a Flock of Birds: A mid-air adventure where people navigate through floating bars, affecting each other’s movements. The bars change color and produce sounds, creating an interactive and exciting climbing experience.
Engaging Art Projects at Future Park
– Connecting! Block Town: An interactive installation where visitors build a city using connecting blocks, creating roads and train tracks for various vehicles to run on.
– Sketch Ocean: An imaginative ocean where visitors can draw and color fish, which then come to life and swim in a digital ocean. Interacting with the fish adds to the lively environment.
– A Window to where Little People Live: A creative space where visitors draw lines and shapes with light pens, where different lines and shapes provide unique powers and interactions for the little ones.
