| |  | A Different Kind of Art 讓人會心一笑的互動藝術 by Marcus Maurice | Interactive art can put a smile on people's faces very quickly.
互動藝術很快地就讓人們展開笑顏。 | Pokemon Go has captivated the hearts, minds, and cell phones of people all around the world. _(1)_ Some people have raged against Pokemon Go because they say it makes people care less about the real world around them and more about what is happening in the imaginary worlds of their phones. _(2)_ Whether or not people want to believe it, Pokemon Go is really interactive art. _(3)_
Instead of being a zombie with their phones, people were encouraged to put them away and look at small stickers on the windows of public transportation. _(4)_ Each time someone interfaced with the game, it was a personal experience for them because they could "eat" bikers, people standing at bus stops, or whoever else was around. _(5)_
Other examples of interactive street art are 3D paintings on the ground that people can walk over, billboards that have questions for people to write their answers, or even life-sized board games on busy streets that people can play. There are no restrictions on interactive art, and the best part is that it is different every time for every person. (A) Others think that people spend a lot of time on their phones anyway, so a game that gets people out of their houses and moving around is a good thing.
(B) Another case of interactive art happened recently in Amsterdam.
(C) This fad has also taken Taiwan by storm, and now many people are out in parks chasing after imaginary creatures.
(D) The game was silly and only lasted until commuters needed to get off, but it was very creative.
(E) Over the past several years, art has been revolutionized by technology and interactive art installations are quite prevalent.
(F) Artists put up small alligator-like stickers on the windows, and people closed one eye and moved their heads up and down to "eat" people outside the windows.

 | 讓人會心一笑的互動藝術
互動藝術很快地就讓人們展開笑顏。
《精靈寶可夢 GO》可說是擄獲了世界各地的人心，佔據了他們的思想和手機。這一股熱潮也風靡了臺灣，如今許多人都在公園裡追逐虛擬的怪獸。有些人對於《精靈寶可夢 GO》感到相當氣憤，因為他們說這個遊戲使人更在乎手機裡虛擬世界所發生的事，而較不在意現實世界發生的一切。有些人則覺得反正大家都花很長時間在滑手機，有一個可以讓大家出門和四處走動的遊戲反而是好事。不管人們願不願意相信，《精靈寶可夢 GO》確實是一種互動藝術。另一個互動藝術的例子最近出現在阿姆斯特丹。
與其像喪屍一樣滑著手機，大家被鼓勵將手機收起來，看看大眾交通工具窗戶上的小貼紙。藝術家在窗戶上貼上鱷魚造型的貼紙，乘客只要閉起一隻眼睛再抬頭與低頭，便可以將窗外的人『吃掉』。每次只要有人玩起這個遊戲，對他們而言都會是一種親身的體驗，因為他們可以『吃掉』自行車騎士、站在公車站的人或是附近的任何人。雖然這個遊戲有一點傻氣，且只會持續到乘客下車之前，但卻十分地有創意。
其他街頭互動藝術的例子還有路人可以走過的 3D 地板畫作、提出問題並讓人可以寫下答案的告示看板，或甚至是在繁忙街道上、與實物大小相符的棋盤遊戲供人玩樂。互動藝術沒有極限，最棒的是每個人每一次都會有不同的體驗。
