Mechatropolis is an installation where you let a little metal ball spin, roll, jump and turn in a big wooden marble track filled with mechanics and games.

Mechatropolis is an interactive low-tec installation in which you let metal balls roll, spin, twist and jump through a large wooden marble track full of mechanics. All parts, including a maze, a magnetic lift, a puzzle with gears and a track with musical instruments are linked to each other, so you will complete the entire track. Playing, visually discovering and practical puzzling are key.
