“Chat” at 24c3 (by aram bartholl)
The Chat project is a mobile performance installation that can be played by two people at a time. Just like in World of Warcraft or Second Life, the two participants communicate with each other in the form of brief text messages input via keyboard. Immediately after they’ve been entered, the written communiqués appear in comic-strip-like dialogue balloons projected above the speaker’s head.

Honda Civic Content City - Yahoo! Page Takeover (by darenorthamerica)
To show how the Civic makes driving fun again, users were urged to click on a big box that said “start your drive”. Once clicked, the whole page flipped down and a city grew from the page’s content. Headlines became buildings. Pictures became billboards. The Civic from the big box then took to the city, zooming through the streets. Once it finished its circuit, a super came up that said, “Driving is fun again”, and then the page flipped back up and the Civic drove back into its original big box.
Monumental Interactive Smiley: Fühlometer (by henrichy0205yt)
http://www.vernissage.tv | Fühlometer (Feel-o-meter) is an interactive art installation that shows the mood of a city by displaying it in the form of a monumental Smiley. The system allows to read emotions out of random people’s faces. The faces are analyzed by sophisticated software (contributed by the Fraunhofer Institut). The obtained mood data are then stored on a server and processed by the smiley to visualize the emotions in real-time.
The system has been developed as joint project by the artists Julius von Bismarck, Benjamin Maus, and Richard Wilhelmer.

Fiat New Uno / If Pee Were Gas - Videocase (by Brimola)
The New Uno is a car synonymous with flexibility and innovation among the Brazilian young generation. But we needed to highlight another feature, as important as its remarkable design: the great fuel economy.
The message of low consumption was presented in a light and fun way, reaching the target in a moment
of great socialization in bars and restaurants, allowing everyone to “test drive” the car in an unusual way
(using their own pee) and spread the word right afterwards.
Besides great effects in the places where the panels were installed, the search for the car on Fiat’s website rose 12% during the week the action was launched. In the weeks after the event, fuel economy became the first feature mentioned by young people at buying decision, followed by its innovative design.
