About Art Alive
In one line: Art Alive makes any image move, speak and play on your phone, with no app to download.
In a paragraph: Art Alive brings artwork to life through a phone's camera. Visitors scan a code, point their phone at a painting, poster or even a sheet of paper, and it begins to move, with sound, a spoken description and a game. Artists make their own in the free Art Alive Studio. Art Alive is made by the Blind Canvas Project and Able Art Alliance, which promote art, education and virtual reality experiences for people with visual impairments, and every piece is built to be heard and felt as well as seen.
