More Adventures in motion!

So I finished my week interning at Onedotzeros Adventures in motion festival. It was great fun and a really good experience. I got to try my hand at all different aspects of the festival from manning the information desk, looking after artists in the green room and manning the installations we had going on around the building. 
 By far my favourite was manning the festival identity installation which was created by Wieden and Kennedy and powered by Nokia. By using the new Nokia N900 you can enter your message using the keypad on the phone which is then projected onto a screen, then by using any of the three functions, tilt, shake or touch, you can manipulate your message on screen. 
You can also zoom in and out and pause the live feed that comes in from the internet and forms the ribbons that write your message. This feed comes from twitter etc about onedotzero and the festival. I had to demonstrate the installation by using it and encourage members of the public to come and interact by having ago themselves.
