PARTICIPATION PINBALL

In this project, I wanted to take the idea of ‘Participation Pinball’, from the Involve project, further than simply presenting the idea of participation in this unconventional way. Instead I wanted to create an interactive version of this idea, that allowed users to play and experience ‘Participation Pinball’ in the form of an app or web game. Conceptually, this format is ideal for getting people who find politics uninteresting to engage with the ideas my project discusses, as it requires participation from the user; as it would give them unpolitical goals (beating high scores) while introducing and presenting ideas surrounding the political system, in order to achieve these goals.
