ASTE ART+ vs The Foundering

ART+ is an augmented reality art app that allows users to experience location-based AR works using their smartphones or tablets. Visit the website (https://artplus.app/) to see all artwork locations. New media, sound and visual artworks can be viewed and listened to from a distance and explored up close, you can walk around them and even enter some of them. ART+ will ask for permission to use Camera and Location (GPS). It is needed for the augmented reality functionality. The app will not take pictures, save or transfer data automatically. In case you don’t want to permit access, you can also see all the artworks on the website without AR: https://artplus.app/ We recommend using headphones to enjoy artworks with sound.

This augmented reality site-specific artwork, designed by artist John Fillwalk and the IDIA Lab team at Ball State University, allows visitors to use their phones to transform a location by introducing virtual elements that connect to their surrounds. Employing animated 3D objects and sound, the site transports the visitor to an augmented virtual experience within familiar surroundings.
