Mattach
Interactive Installation | Video | 2015
The Mattach; a virtual learning experience for children with special needs. Kentalis came to us with an inquiry about a learning experience for their students, most of whom function at the level of a six year old. The teachers had some trouble explaining certain subjects to their students, and had noticed that new media seemed to draw their attention.

From this briefing me and my fellow students created the Mattach. The children battle against time (or each other) using their hands and feet to touch different parts of the installation, meanwhile learning new things. The specific subject we made for the first version of the Mattach focussed on different homonyms, and the theme was traffic. The subject and theme are both interchangable, so the options are endless.

The Mattach was picked as a favourite by the children and teachers of Kentalis | 2016
