Artist's Concept:
Playcode is an interactive art installation to be installed in a stairwell in Admiralty Station by the end of 2016. The artwork is inspired by the area's history as a major naval base and incorporates elements of Morse Code, one of the early forms of digital communication.
The artwork includes five large QR codes - today's version of Morse Code - that link directly to the MTR's website. Playcode simultaneously explores old and new opportunities for coding, decoding, interacting and extracting digital information.
