Die Reise – Multiplayer caterpillar steered by body movement

Each participant is represented by a bodypart of a caterpillar. The bodyparts come together to form a caterpillar when participants stand in line, facing the screen and hold their hands. It’s about to jump together over obstacles, avoid traps, collect points and trigger small movies on the tryplex fablab journey.
