Marpi

Extinct Systems is large scale immersive projection environment supporting 100+ people interacting at the same time, on one canvas.

Anyone at the venue can connect to a simple link on their phones and create + control their own digital living beings.

Each person gets a "spotlight" in front of them they can control rotating their phones. With a simple click they send their creatures onto the screen, and all the ones they created, they control - following their light.

The creatures are built using more than 30 core parameters, mixed and evolved into infinite variations, created by everyone.

The main part of the artwork is a procedurally generated ecosystem, an algorithm that helps generating infinite variations of walking creatures.
