Portal on Candleriggs
We developed and produced our second in-house project which exhibited at Surge Festival in Glasgow.
Portal on Candleriggs invited passersby to leave the streets of Glasgow behind and step into imagined worlds of their own making!
Using model making, simple props, green screen, live performance and real-time generative AI, we transported portal guest to other worlds in a fun mash-up of improvisational theatre and cutting-edge technology.
The portal was created in collaboration with students from City of Glasgow College NQ Model Making for TV and HND Model Making for the Creative Industries courses.

Miniature Spectacular
Techbox's first in house project exhibited at Manipulate Festival in Edinburgh.
This experimental installation merged miniature model-making and hand crafted art with projection-mapping, MIDI controllers and realtime generative AI.
We created a scale model city to represent Edinburgh with a giant inflatable hovering above it. Participants were invited to interpret what this mysterious object was - maybe a a foreboding omen or a symbol of hope - then the were asked to respond by designing it look by using collage, which was then transformed with AI software then projected onto the inflatable.
