Store description excerpt
Black Rock Beachcombers AR accompanies three marker sculptures of the same name created for the boardwalk at Black Rock on Brighton's eastern seafront by Anna Dumitriu and Alex May. It is inspired by a large scale project to re-wild the beach at Black Rock with native plants and ‘waves’ of shingle have been created to protect the young plants as they take root. Central to this process of re-wilding is the plant Sea Kale, a strange edible plant whose seeds float out to sea and can lay dormant for many years before germination is started when the seeds are broken open on the rocks. This can be seen as a metaphor for the Black Rock site itself. Sea Kale takes five years to flower and produce seeds the augmented reality artwork will enable users to experience various stages of it’s lifecycle. Load the app, hold your phone camera over a flat surface until a green dot appears after a few seconds and then tap your phone screen to 'digitally plant' some sea kale. Plant as many as you like and use the 'photo' button to take photos to share with the hashtag #blackrockbeachcombers to exit the app use the 'exit' button. The Black Rock Rejuvenation project is part of a large-scale regeneration effort to transform the city’s eastern seafront and enable further development in the future. The project commissioned by Brighton & Hove City Council. See more here: https://blackrockbeachcombers.co.uk/
