Abstract
Public installations have the opportunity to influence many people due to their location and the vast amount of people that are exposed to them. New technologies and materials bring new opportunities to the forms of public installations. Many of these installations are interactive. This paper investigates how interaction with public installations affects its users by evaluating the experience of social connectedness with a specially designed prototype.
