4D Melbourne: Unearthing the invisible uses location based narrative and augmented reality (AR) to create a personalised, hyper-local interactive wayfinding experience.

Participants can activate 2D, 360 and 3D content by pointing their phone at 2D markers hidden around each site.

Meet NIDA, your intelligent assistant - here to help you traverse through space and time in a quest for knowledge and social experiences in the public realm.

The first participants to complete any of the three activation sites will receive a unique gift from each location. Be the first to complete all the sites together in order to unearth a hidden location.
