8 Ways to Be “Phygital”, with Alin Tocmacov
Is everything “phygital”? Are all our projects now neither physical nor digital, but both? How can a “phygital mindset” lead to better experience design? Exhibition designer and “phygital architect” Alin Tocmacov joins host Jonathan Alger (both partners at C&G Partners) to hash out some key principles, in “8 Ways to Be Phygital”. Stops along the way: magic portals, digital architecture, and that thing about glowing rectangles.
Quotable Quotes:
“Phygital is a mindset.”
“Think beyond the glowing rectangle.”
“A site-specific experience is unique by definition.”
“Technology shouldn’t be applied to architecture, it should be the architecture.”
“Every member of a project team now has to think phygitally.”
