(5/5) This is 𝘋𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘰 𝘌𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘤𝘵 by Ingrid Ingrid. I liked the contrast of the eerie soundscape—like you’re about to be run over by an EV—to the loud clunking of toppled dominos … like you were just run over by an EV.
That’s it for this year!

This is 𝘗𝘖𝘗! by Gentilhomme Studio. You can tell that this is a favourite by the fact that every person here is smiling & laughing. ❤️

(3/5) 𝘏𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘻𝘰𝘯 by Matt Creative. There was a button panel nearby, to allow viewers to manipulate colours & patterns, that wasn’t working. Despite this, the installation made for some cool photos.

(2/5) 𝘏𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘴 𝘢𝘵 𝘗𝘭𝘢𝘺 by Domnikova Design. There’s a lot going on in these hearts, the smaller one featuring a maze on both sides—I’ll call it the P.A.T.H.—and the larger one filled with familiar Toronto landmarks … and frogs.

(1/5) 𝘖𝘷𝘢𝘭 𝘚𝘸𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 by Prevail Activations. I loved the big, bright glow of the bold, space age-like pieces.
