The Urban Speaker is an art installation that transforms public space into an instant stage for mass communication. This portable urban furniture allows people to broadcast their voice in public by calling a telephone number from their mobile phones. A QR (Quick Response) barcode on the sign allows some mobile phones to instantly access the website for location, event and other details as well as quick dialing of the installation’s phone.

Making Future Magic: iPad light painting explores playful uses for the increasingly ubiquitous ‘glowing rectangles’ that inhabit the world. BERG uses photographic and animation techniques that were developed to draw moving 3-dimensional typography and objects with an iPad. In dark environments, we play movies on the surface of the iPad that make 3-d light forms as they move through the exposure. Multiple exposures with slightly different movies make up the stop-frame animation. /via @calebkramer
