Dextris

2010CIFBCI (Communication Design)

The name Dextris is a combination of the words Dexterous (adj. Skillful in the use of the hands) and Tetris (noun. 1985 Electronic puzzle game.) Dextris is a playful tangible media installation which allows users to engage with the exhibit using their hands as well as up to 3 command consoles that directly control a different element of the game. Dextris is essentially an aesthetically updated version of the classic arcade game Tetris, however the game-play remains mostly unchanged.
