The City of Palo Alto Public Art Program will launch its third interactive media art festival, Code:ART, a three-evening<br />
event that re-imagines Palo Alto’s underutilized plazas, alleys, and public spaces through interactive light, sound, and<br />
motion. The festival will feature a major interactive media artwork anchoring the festival and six Urban Interventions<br />
activating or reimagining downtown storefronts, alleys, parking lots or blank walls in new and inventive ways. The<br />
artworks will invite play and participation, engaging area locals in an event that outwardly reflects the creative<br />
community and culture that thrives here.<br />
Major Artwork at King Plaza, 250 Hamilton Ave,<br />
Palo Alto, CA.<br />
Questions for the Curious Orchard by artist Nate Mohler is a<br />
site-specific immersive interactive artwork that visually responds<br />
to visitors in a playful and engaging way. Taking inspiration from<br />
complex networks and energy exchange between living beings<br />
occurring in the natural world, such as the contagiousness of<br />
laughter or tree roots communicating in a forest, the installation<br />
invites visitors to gift something to it, such as their heartbeat or<br />
best dance moves, that will animate the installation.<br />
