The setup

Social media giant Twitter, celebrated its 10th anniversary on 21st March. To help with the celebration, Engage Works teamed up with Twitter to create an interactive Twitterverse at ‘#TwitterLive’ which took place in May in London. Collaborating with the best designers, artists and creative masterminds, #TwitterLive put guests at the heart of an inspiring experience that celebrates passions on Twitter. The focus was on the top 5 passions, including Sport, TV, Music, Film, Fashion and Food. We created an immersive and interactive manifestation of these passions, displayed on a 11metre curved projection screen at the event, allowing users to step into a conversation on Twitter, and delve into some great Twitter stories, all from a single iPad. The Twitterverse was created using clusters of selected data streams aggregated from specific Twitter passions and feeds. Data is visually manifested into a construction of nodes and connections, each forming layers of complex information that can be filtered live by a host on stage. The user is able to filter out layers of information to access passions, feeds and even singular tweets.
