Augmented reality means that I (with much help from the curator Warren Armstrong) created a 3D digital model which was then virtually placed in a physical location. At the location you can only see the work if you view it through a smart phone or tablet. The website describes it :
Situated in these locations will be virtual digital works; hidden from the naked eye but visible to anyone with an iPhone, Android or Nokia smartphone and an app called theLayar Reality Browser, that can be downloaded for free from iTunes, the Android Market or the Ovi Store.Once they have downloaded this app, people can simply open it up, search for “unseen”, select the layer set up for the show, then hold up their phones at the designated locations, and they will see 3D artworks. When these artworks are “touched”, further information about them will be revealed and other forms of interaction may be unlocked.
The exhibition is on until March 31st in the Rozelle area, and there will be tours on Sat the 17th, 24th and 31st of March.
You'll find the work in Rozelle (Sydney) at the following location (google maps) :
