Reunion part 2. Blast Theory won the Golden Nica for Interactive Art at ARS 2003. This piece uniquely mixes real and virtual worlds, which they often do in their work. The figures and town look very cool... but the system itself doesn't quite work properly...

By becoming a resident in this imaginary town, the piece lets you exchange messages on your mobile with other people about disasters and events that occur in the town. However, I couldn't send or receive any messages... Up to 1000 people can participate, and yet due to errors in the system, I was unable to interact with anybody during my turn… In the end, I couldn't experience the full potential of the game, but if I ever get another chance to play it again, I promise I'll record it and show it here.
