Interactive Art

Launch an expedition to find The Grove nestled deep in the forest of carnivalesque colours.

Synesthesia

What colour is “E”, or “5”, or “Tuesday”? If you associate colours to numbers or letters, you have synesthesia, a perceptual phenomenon that involves a mixing of the senses. Come compare your colour associations with your SideBurn peers (yes, there is data!)

Check Engine

Although I am a cosmic traveler, I now assume the humble form of a car. For eons, I have ferried inquisitive minds across the vastness of space - but on this Earth, I am broken, stranded. Oh, explorer! Will you find me? Can you fix me?
