BioInspired! So What? Now What!

Art Works for Change's first electronic game, BioHarmonious will be launched at the Nature's Toolbox exhibition at The Leonardo.  But you don't have to go to Salt Lake City to play the game.  AWFC has produced an online version for computer play only.

BioHarmonious addresses our collective need to live in environmental balance between the manufactured and the natural worlds. Though designed for young people it helps all of us understand the premise of learning from nature; how nature can inspire healthy, sustainable environments; and how nature and human-made environments need to be in balance.

Art Works for Change engaged recent graduates from Chicago Columbia College's Department of Interactive Arts and Media program, led by Amanda Dittami, to design and develop the unique, innovative and educational electronic game. Thank you to our game sponsor, AT&T Foundation.

Some tips: BioHarmonious is playable on the free downloadable software, Unity Pro, compatible with most browsers (plays best on Firefox, Safari and Internet Explorer). Unity Web Player for Windows requires Windows XP/Vista/7. Unity Web Player for Mac requires Mac OS X 10.5 or newer.
