Positive Spin
Positive Spin is a 5m high, interactive artwork from the collective minds of experience creators Invisible Wind Factory and illustrator Liz Harry that invites you to step up and receive your positive fortune.
Inspired by a love of summers spent at beach front arcades, this brand new artwork aims to share the importance of looking forward positively and offers you a moment of joy in your day.
Comprising of a 3 button interface, integrated audio and custom HD video walls, the work acts as an automated tarot reader, generating for audiences beautifully animated illustrations of their potential fortune.
