The MNY

They are hiding all around us – on the sides of skyscrapers and in small scratches on benches. And once you open your eyes to them, you will see their faces everywhere!

The MNY is a participative-AR game designed for children’s eyes, ideas and ways. Snap a photo of any face-like form, draw a persona directly onto that image, and then upload it to the digital map. Your MNY can then show itself to other players as they physically wander past.

This is virtual graffiti by kids! And your help is needed to create it.

This project is in development kids from 6-12 years of age are invited to come and test the first stage of the game as part of Melbourne Fringe's XS program. Come along to RMIT campus for a part digital, part artist-guided experience of The MNY. Bring an internet connecting device and an adult to tag along behind you.
