Interactive Poster


The poster is activated when users click on a peace button. The pattern disappears revealing three religious symbols. In order to coexist peacefully, it is sometimes important to place religion in the personal sphere and promote similarities and homogenization among the different religions.
How it works
:Silkscreen is used to ensure an even level of ink on the paper. The pattern is created using three religious symbols: the cross, the star, and the crescent. A layer of acrylic ink is applied to draw the three symbols, whereas the pattern is printed with thermochromic ink, which will disappear once heat is applied to it. In order to create heat, a circuit is drawn on the back of the paper, using conductive ink. Conductive fabric is used in addition to that because it has a hire resistance and warms up more. When users click on the peace sign the circuit is closed and the heat will cause the pattern to disappear revealing the different religious symbols.
