About Microworld
Microworld is the latest evolution in digital art exhibitions: fully immersive, interactive and adaptive - a ‘living’ space. The projected artworks respond to the audience, to the space, and to each other. What emerges is a dynamic digital ecosystem.
Microworlds are designed and programmed by Genetic Moo and produced by Lumen Art Projects.
