Appeel

🏆 Honorary Mention · Prix Ars Electronica 2008
In 2008, the Prix Ars Electronica jury recognised “Appeel” by TheGreenEyl, Frédéric Eyl, Willi Sengewald, Richard The and 1 others (Interactive Art) with a Honorary Mention.
“Appeel” is a virus spreading through interacting individuals. Surfaces are covered by thousands of colored stickers laid out in a grid. Peeling a sticker off leaves a white spot in the grid, hence people start individually and collectively changing its appearance.
