The result is a shadow-image in which a human silhouette is all that can be seen. This picture is then printed out as a miniature sticker and applied to a “map” whose topography has been derived from a cluster of topics including education, environment, health system and society, whereby the body language of the silhouette, a speech balloon containing a brief statement, and the respective thematic cluster coalesce into a message. For instance: the person behind the illuminated screen covers his/her ears with his/her hands while being photographed. This silhouette is then allocated to the Environment cluster and a speech balloon containing a remark about noise pollution is added to it. The upshot is a highly creative, graphic mode of “social brainstorming” and thus a means of identifying problems and bringing out potential solutions.
"Shadowgram" is a work by the Ars Electronica Futurelab (AT).
