This interactive projection was developed to communicate smart city initiatives by OICT. The work translates complex narratives around urban pollinators into a simple interactive game that invites visitors to take on the role of a pollinator.
The project was exhibited at the Smart City Expo in Barcelona. The animation is grounded in ecological accuracy, representing pollinator species and plant life commonly found in the Prague environment. Featured species include bees, bumblebees, peacock butterflies, and old-world swallowtail butterflies, alongside field cornflowers, oxeye daisies, common poppies, and red clovers.
Once the flower has been pollinated, the particle mist attracts the player to pollinate more flowers. The pollination time of a meadow affects the soundscape created by assigning a specific sound to each plant and randomly generating their appearances.
By combining scientific reference with playful interaction, the installation makes urban biodiversity accessible and engaging for a broad audience.
