Panel Statement

Panel: Latin American Forum #3

PLAY! Festival: An experiment in augmented reality. Artistic Director Juan José Díaz Infante. This presentation shows via a series of slides different examples of the pieces that were shown, how they were presented and how the public reacted. Play! is in its third edition: Silence! Invisible Poets. The festival is based on the lack of translation of the word “play” into Spanish. Each year the festival has a theme that is explored. For this year´s festival we decided to explore the telephone as the interphase of reality. The festival was a great success; this is a brief description of the different pieces that were shown.
