Embed
A Hobo Hotel room where guests fill all four walls with films from a tablet by the bed.
Embed was a collaboration with Barkas and Vitali Poluzhnikov, built in 2021. Three short-throw projectors were installed in a small hotel room at Hobo Hotel in Stockholm, with an elaborate speaker system and a custom control interface on a tablet. Guests could book the room and browse curated films and generative graphics, surrounded by visuals on every wall.
