Super You is an AR costume arts experiment by Universal Everything. Aim your camera at your super friend, see them transform and swipe to change costumes. There are lots of super costumes to choose from, which also sample the colours of the clothes you are wearing. Using the latest body tracking technology, film your Super You taking a walk in the park, dancing in the kitchen or relaxing on the sofa. Make a film of your creation and share it directly from your device’s gallery to social media, using the hashtag #SuperYouAR to join in with this collaborative artwork. Some general tips for making your Super You film: - Move gracefully rather than frenetically. - Find good lighting. - Wear colourful clothing. - Try filming different activities in different locations - it works indoors and outdoors! The Super You app was developed and animated by Universal Everything as part of their Future Human art series and is available internationally for free with no in-app purchases. Please play nicely, make sure you are in a safe environment when you play in AR and always remain aware of your surroundings. Notes The ‘Super You’ app was developed in Unity, using Apple ARKit 3.5 and its body tracking technology. It is compatible with devices which have the Apple A12 and A13 chip. These are currently the iPhone XS, iPhone XR, iPhone 11, 11 Pro, 11 Pro Max, iPhone SE (2020) and iPad Pro (2019, 3rd generation), on iOS 13 and up. The app is available for free with no in-app purchases.

About

Mycelium

Features
Read full description

Mycelium is an ever-growing artistic project combining queer ecologies, sci-fi, and new media that enables interspecies intimacy. The sound follows the structure of the fungal network. The stories imagine an ecosystem based on mutual aid. The AR presents an immersive environment and allows the audience to follow the non-linear narrative. The application serves as a platform that extends the work's dissemination and will be continually developed. The project is created by Zosia Hołubowska in collaboration with Joanna Zabielska, with texts by Claudia Strate, Jul Zabowskx; and Claire Lefèvre as well as short excerpts from books by Agnieszka Szpila and Ursula Le Guin. Supported by the City of Vienna, the Austrian Federal Ministry of Art, Culture, Civil Service and Sport, and Monom Studio Berlin.
