Abstract

This paper describes an interactive Augmented Reality (AR) art installation based on, and in, an ISO (International Organization for Standardization) shipping container. The work was inspired by the book, "The Box" [1] written by Marc Levinson, and the theatrical work of Petr Sourek [2] which explores the persona of Malcom McLean, inventor of the shipping container as we know it today.
