Studio Interave is a design practice of Communication Designers, Architects, Programmers, and Cultural Scientists all of whom trained in Camden. They organise events, performances and happenings in public spaces and their working strategy is to use established technologies in novel ways, using reliable cheap components. Their approach is usually to design, engineer and test a single component which is reproducible on a large scale.

Studio Interave are showing a ‘work in progress’ – a small prototype of a larger installation planned for 2014 – “PaintWall’, an interactive installation – a wall which ‘mimicks’ the colour of any object held close, allowing users to build up images, text, and pattern with everyday objects – hats, bags, books, etc – on the matrix of lights. This colourful surface is an invitation to play and to communicate, an intervention altering the rules of public behaviour and encouraging dialog, co-operation, and communication between individuals. Paintwall is a physically-generated digital image, itself a photo opportunity, its images disseminated via handheld devices.

The installation will be in the foyer of Central St Martins between 26th October and 3rd November; members of Interave and guests will talk about this and other projects daily.
