for AUDI at design miami 2011. the pavillion introduced a city paved with a digital interactive surface,
liberating the streets from existing pedestrian and vehicular boundaries and allowing for flexibility in public spaces.
the entire area was infused with a continuous flow of information, allowing for real-time interaction between the cars and the people on foot.
this data was processed and generated into artwork which was fed back to the panels, following the moving visitors with colorful pockets.
the AUDI A2 driverless concept car was featured as the centrepiece of urban surface prototype, continuously emitting arrows to
indicate its future path as it navigated between the visitors.

motion sensors allow LEDs to change color and respond to movement
