The Floor is Lava

Get to the other side without landing in the lava: step on a block and it starts to crack — the projection tracks the players in real time.

This interactive floor projection was created in the winter term 2022/23 during a vvvv course at Mainz University of Applied Sciences, led by Nils Weger, and shown at the degree show of the Time-Based Media programme.

On roughly six square metres of playing surface, one rule applies: get to the other side. But as soon as players step on a seemingly safe block, cracks begin to form, growing wider until the blocks fall away into the depths.

A city festival, a museum night, a corporate event — tell us
about your site and your occasion, and we will tell you what it
could become.
