Virtual supermarkets are popping up in subway stations in South Korea, where commuters can virtually shop for items while waiting for the train to come.

This film Peripetics by the German group Zeitguised is an experiment is space and sound. An interesting mix of sculpture, digital art, and set design. As the group describes this piece,
“Peripetics or the Installation of an Irreversible Axis on a Dynamic Timeline is a piece in six acts that entails imaginations of disoriented systems that take a catastrophic turn, including the evolution of educational plant-body-machine models and liquid building materials.”
The film is a mesmerizing 3 minutes. Check it out. For more information on their work click here.
