Wii Spray

Basically it is not about replacing real graffiti as a form of art. WiiSpray
is rather to be seen as an interface to give graffiti a new virtual level
outside of the real existing world.

The symbiosis of digital and analog as well as of the social network and
overcoming distances. Everyone can use it, nothing is being sprayed
on or being destroyed. Only you decide what to save because everything
is virtual.

The actual tool of the artist – the spraying can – is maintained in its shape,
functions and haptics. On the other hand a new interface for creativity is
created aside of the usual input options on a computer.It is self-explanatory,
does not ask for a manual and therefore does not have to studied or
understood. The project “WiiSpray” is not just a hardware interface but also
a software. This software stimulated the real act of spraying, offers a wide
range of colors, different caps as well as the possibility to use you own
backgrounds (photos, graphics, etc.).

The artworks created with the WiiSpray are not just temporary. You can save
them on the server and take a look at them and work on them anytime.

The WiiSpray provides a framework of different possibilities yet without any
specifications on how to use it. Every user decides for themselves what
his
or her creative expressions might be.
