About this project

Visitors have 60 seconds to find and scan care products without microplastics around a tall pole covered in shredded plastic. For FAMA VOLAT and the Plastic Soup Foundation, WAUD built the physical installation, the game and the web app that records scans and scores. The project brings a topic from everyday life into a physical, timed activity.
