The Story-Telling Workshop

The "Story-Telling/City Tales" workshop was combined with mixed reality and urban environment, where book stories were applied at the Naschmarkt (the main public market in the city) in Vienna, through mobile devices with MR Player installed, reading printed markers placed at the 12 points of interest across the market.

This experience offered the opportunity to gain both the experience and skills necessary to work in location aware games and mixed reality storytelling. Despite being a short time project, it was possible to work on concepts, to create material and to present the results, which brought a solid experience and different perspective than a long-term project.
