FROG STAR

Is there any water on Mars?

In 1985, Toys in Space mission astronauts brought a little mechanical frog with them, into orbit. Our exhibition’s visitors have the tough task of going to look for this little frog !

Frogstar is a digital installation composed of a red sand box, in which children and families dig into with their hands.

A projector stands above the box, adjusting the projected images according to the sand thickness, thanks to a video-tracking technology.

Dig until the water shows up, and find the frog !

Frogstar is a participatory and collaborative artwork for the whole family, which sharpens the sense of touch using new digital technologies.
