Carbon Digital Media
Energy Mix
Interactive Kiosk
An interactive database
of electricity
consumption around the
globe. Visitors select a
region of the globe to
see the total annual
electricity consumption,
export and import.

24 Hours of Power
Interactive Kiosk
Balance and timing are
the key in this activity.
Visitors try to meet the
cities power needs
throughout the course of
a 24 hour-day. By
manipulating the output
from coal, nuclear, wind,
hydro and solar power
plants the user gains a
understanding that cost,
availablility and
environmental issues must
be considered when
creating a sound
electrical power
strategy.
Home Application
Interactive Kiosk
Many technologies are
designed to give us more
leisure time. In Home
Application the visitor
must tidy his apartment
in a conventional way,
with the use of a vacuum
cleane and he must do it
as fast or faster than
the efficient robatic
vaccum cleaner of his
neighbour.
This game became a bit frustrating for players due to the fact that controlling the vacuum cleaner with the kiosk's joystick controller was difficult. The computer almost always won and hardly anyone felt it was a fair match.

MagicBox
Interactive Kiosk
MagicBox refers to the
manner in which petroleum
is refined in to a number
of useful products.
Players review the
general concepts of
petroleum refining and
then play the challenge
round where they interact
with the distillation
tower (MagicBox)
variables to produce a
specific amount of a
particular petroleum
distillate.
Metro
Interactive Kiosk
Advances in technology
allow comupters to
operate our transit
systems in efficient
ways. In this activity,
visitors attempt to
control a subway train as
efficiently as a
computer. They must make
all scheduled stops and
must do so without
wasting electricity
through excessive
acceleration and braking.
The second of three
"human vs computer"
games.
Renewable Energy
Interactive Kiosk
Not really a game per se.
More of an overview of
renewable energy
technology and where it
was being used in the
world.
Traffic of Goods
Interactive Kiosk
Another human vs computer
interactive. Players
tried unloading
containers from trains
and loading them onto
ships faster than the
computer could. The
problem was that ship and
train capacities seldom
matched so the player had
to decide which trains to
bring in to minimize
loading and unloading
times.
Troll Platform
Interactive Kiosk
An exploration of one of
the world's largest (if
not the largest)
oil and gas platforms.
Quicktime VRs throughout
the platform give
visitors a sense of the
scale and complexity of
this engineering wonder.
