Please Feed the Lions

Info and credits

‘Please Feed the Lions’ is a user-driven interactive installation designed by Es Devlin; a fifth fluorescent red lion was installed in Trafalgar Square for The London Design Festival, 2018. The public were invited to “Feed the Lion” where their contributed word was developed into a poem with Google Art + Culture’s algorithm. The ever-evolving poem was updated live and projection-mapped over the lion and onto Nelson’s column.
