Augmented reality. Pictures, plans and information appearing about the past of architectural sites connected to Ă–dĂśn Lechner, famous architect of the Secession movement. Besides the numerous factual data, interesting visual information and stimuli helps the brain to process the information into knowledge. The application raises attention for the museum and provokes a relevant and innovative brand image.
The aim for the application was to get the public in touch with the art and architecture of Ödön Lechner, who was one of the most famous architect of his time. The app was realised on one of the courses of the university (MOME): The future of museums in the Visegrád region. At the centenary of Ödön Lechner’s death.
The actual sites would be signalled by the logo on the ground pointing at which direction the camera of the device should, making it fun and easy to find the places where the app can show its full potential. To use one should have access to a smartphone or tablet running Android operating system and mobile internet connection for GPS connection.
In the first part of the app the user can look at chronological archive of photos arranged to the cameras live view, while listening to interesting fact and stories about the historical and cultural context of the building related to the time when the photo was made.
In the second part of the app, architecture plans can be placed on the view of the buildings. If the a plan is placed in the right place, more interesting information can be read and heard in connection to the specific architectural solutions mastered by the great architect. Connecting the sometimes more than one hundred years old blueprints to the live view of a smartphone is an interesting experience.
This of series of photo builds upon the long shutter time of the camera obscura technic. A picture like this is made in a timespan of 5 to 10 minutes depending on the lighting situation. The image does not conserve a single moment but rather a longer period of time. Actors, since they move around in space, cannot be captured in the usual sense but their presence is there, giving the image a transcendent value. Drinking a coffee on a terrace, the sublime choreograph of a dancer, taking a shower and a kiss have all happened over several minutes but here they are trapped in a single picture.
MOMENT Visual poem without words. Sound of an old clock, cracking floor and the atmosphere of a ancient forsaken building.

Title: “A was not allowed to leave the table, until I ate everything� The following video performance is dealing with a childhood trauma. It is documented that I eat all kinds of onions until I am able to. This experiment stands really close to my heart, as it documents the conquest over a physical and psychical barrier.

Our personalities are complex systems. Many roles coexist in one. In this work I dissected my own in to four of these. After long self-observation I found these contradictory but strong characters inside my own ego. The strong-minded women, the sleazy macho, the introvert fragile girl, and the extrovert infantile teenage girl. All the characters are represented by myself sitting on different kind of chairs chosen specifically to the character I was acting.
CONSUMER BROCHURE In consumer society the human is represented as a product, when products like clothes are presented as objects with personalities. This is a brochure miming the style of well known design brands. The brochures were propagated guerrilla style, put in random free magazines in crowded public spaces.

STILL LIFE Still life is the title of this experimental short video, bearing attributes of a photo, a painting and motion picture at the same time. First an elliptic fahrt movement is used to show the enigmatic frame of sensual story, than dynamic editing fills the visual with strong emotional narrative.

Four days later it was found with the big amounts of cannabis in the drivers department, and in the storage dep the driver was found frozen to death, which happened presumably when checking the hidden cocain under the deep-frozen broccoli, but has had too many joints and stuck there.

OVERSTEP I want to invite masses of passive observers to take action and start experiencing. People should expand their barriers, step out of their comfort zone, socialise and collect experiences. The goal of the project is to make an online application which pools exercises that can only be accomplished in the physical realm. Besides the exercises there is a big emphasis on the documentation of them. The exercises consist of capacity building and personality developing “dare or not” situations. I believe that completing these are going to change ordinary everyday of users in a very positive way. The exercises can we browsed according to advanced search criteria (difficulty, theme, number of participants, location and other). Important part of the application is the social network it builds, which is independent of Facebook and similar pages. This is another source of motivation for the users to play and upload even more interesting videos showing off what they did, gaining more and more followers and friends. The video could be posted publicly subjected to comments, ratings and discussion with other members of the circle. Also new situations can be thought of and made public for others to try them out. The group of target is the so called “x and y generation”, but anyone having access to internet can participate. Worked with graphic artist Csaba Világosi.
