CONTEXT

In a creative coding course, we explored JavaScript through an interactive contribution to Elvelangs, an annual event along the Akerselva river.

FROM CODE TO PHYSICAL INTERACTION

We developed a simple JavaScript fish game and built a physical controller with a motion sensor and micro:bit.

IN USE AT ELVELANGS

The game was shown during Elvelangs and invited passers-by of all ages to stop, try it and compete for the best time. Many came back for another go.
