Every square in every major city in the world knows the 'human statue' phenomenon. On the Dam square in Amsterdam we've the following set of characters: a Darth Vader, a superman, a gladiator and some undecipherable sort of gothic characters. Even though they have nothing to do with the city of Amsterdam, people go and have their picture taken with them on and off. But not on the 24th of April! Then, the majority of people will be photographing the empty space beside Darth. Because that space will be occupied by virtual 'human sculptures', brought alive by Augmented Reality applications on iPhones and Android devices!

For the groundbreaking of the new Film Museum site in Amsterdam Overhoek I was asked by Wieden + Kennedy to develop an augmented projection to dynamically unveil a five meter long sand sculpture of the future building. Working with Emily Gobeille we developed a two minute animation that unveiled the building in a series of stages that highlighted both the architectural elements of the building as well as giving a preview of what people would experience inside.
