WELCOME TO THE CAVE

Summary

The Learn & Play Island is collaboration of 5 projects situated on the North-East bank of the RDM site.

Our goal is to discuss the very much-discussed issue of Sustainability from a different standpoint.

We want to show the RDM-visitors how sustainable living can be not only meaningful but also playful and fun.

In order to do that we believe people need to interact with technology and see the result of their every-day choices for themselves. For instance the harbor water is filtered and cleaned so that the visitors can swim in it. The energy consumption of the whole island is continuously monitored and graphically displayed on EzRDM’s large media façade. The visitors can even produce energy by jumping up and down the piezoelectric paths.

The CAVE is the centerpiece of the Learn and Play island tying the two information centers, the landscape and the experimental housing together to create one whole. Housing an experimental workshop space and a series of wall segment surrounding it the CAVE offers opportunity to interacts and play hoping the visitor ponders about the future of our planet while doing so.



The CAVE is a member of Landscaping / Public Space / Access and The Culture and Entertainment Committee
