Talking Trees: augmented reality inspired by social history.
A playful project that gives character and voice to the trees of Chalkwell Park. Find and meet the talking trees to discover fascinating insights into the social history of the park. You will certainly learn something new, if only about the trees themselves who express a range of refreshingly frank opinions. In turn beguiling, educational and amusing. Launches October the 6th 2015.
Talking Trees of Chalkwell Park has been commissioned by Metal Culture as part of the NetPark project.
Supported by the Digital R&D Fund for the Arts – Nesta, Arts & Humanities Research Council and public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England.
