Sculpture in augmented reality

This sculpture exists in mixed reality. The lower part of it is visible in the real physical world illuminated by LEDs. On the top a series of QR Codes and printed shapes let you discover the virtual part. The virtual dimension of the sculpture is built with 3D animations which respond to the environment and can be customized by the viewer. All one has to do is scan the QR code for the camera of your smartphone to capture both the realities and blend them into one.
 
What happens after you scan the code on your smartphone…
The Code prompts access to your phone camera and opens a simple website, allowing you to click a selfie in mixed reality.
