Impasto Art is now available on iOS

Sticky Post By On February 19, 2015

We’ve just launched the second app for the Impasto Art Project on iOS platform. The app is Chromecast and Airplay Enabled so you can easily convert your TV into the digital painting.

Just download the app and connect it to your Chromecast device. The artworks will be streamed directly to your TV screen. If you have an Apple TV, you can view the artworks using AirPlay.

You can set ‘Preferences’ according to your taste, or just enjoy the whole collection: paintings by old masters, modernists and impressionists in addition to drawings, prints and vintage photographs by world-famous artists.

In this pre mass-market version of the app you can view the works from the J. Paul Getty Museum (the United States) and the Rijksmuseum (the Netherlands). We will soon add more museum collections so there will be even more art to choose from. Enjoy!

Site Me for Holland Call

Sticky Post By On February 4, 2015

After three months of hard work with Het Erfgoedkabinet we have presented our joint creation – Site Me – at the Holland Call symposium on January 28th, 2015.

Holland Call was a call from the Province Noord-Holland to the creative industry in search for a new Cultural Touristic Product (CTP). The assignment was to create a product which would stimulate more visits  to the heritage sites of the Province. So here is our idea in a nutshell:

Site Me offers a new way of discovering all the rich heritage that the Province Noord Holland has to offer. Swipe along the (heritage) sites, stay up to date of everything what happens at your favorite locations and plan a getaway around the site of your choice!

Even though we did not win, we are investigating opportunities to take the project further and are looking for partners.

Our special thanks to Kristiaan der Nederlanden and  Klevr for making the beautiful animation of the Site Me concept. We are also extremely grateful to all the experts from the FreedomLab who were helping, inspiring and supporting us during this project.
