Adresses: The disappearance, vandalism, and removal of public art in Venice.
Solution: Use a projector to project an image of the piece of public art that has gone missing onto the exact spot where it once stood. Projector will have a light sensor so that it turns on only when it is dark enough to see the picture. The projector will also display pictures of other pieces of missing public art at random time intervals throughout the night. All projectors will have a protective casing around them so they are not damage by weather or the public. The cases will have to be made of a material that is water resistant and that the projector can project through.
Hopefully this will help us locate some of the missing art works and, or motivate the city to replace or repair missing or damaged pieces.

Our Mission
We are team of 4 people ready to tackle on the upcoming issues of Venice. We will use our creative intuitions and savvy minds to create art installations that will add whimsy to the streets of Venice as well as excite the minds of the pedestrians in hopes of gaining a deeper appreciation for the historically rich city.
~interact with the 5 senses (touch, smell, hear, see, and taste) and the 6th (intuition)
~represent concrete issues impacting the quality of life of Venetians
~tickle the fancy of passers-by with beautiful street art
~engage the viewers in a game of sorts that will enable them to understand the entire project
So our goal is not only to develop a mechanism to advertise the project on the web, but also to implement, test, and install as many of the pre-existing concepts as possible (such as Arduino or Sunspots). We are aiming to solve any logistical issue associated with each installation (ie art peice) and design a system that will achieve the desired effect deploying minimalist sustainable technology in the field.
Our goal is to also fully script and develop an overarching Augmented Reality Game (ARG) to tie the 20 installations together into a meaningful experience for the Venetian or tourist.
Can we do it??? YES!!
