Toronto’s ArtWalk 2.0 combines art and technology to bring a multi-sensory experience

Toronto’s new ArtWalk 2.0 combines art and technology to provide viewers with a fresh and modern take on outdoor public art and the best part? It’s all for free. 

ArtWalk 2.0 is a new, immersive augmented reality (AR) and audio experience that showcases over 70 outdoor public art pieces across downtown Toronto.

Solutions must come from every corner of the world, and cover every major industry and the power and process they use. And they need to come fast.

That’s why the energy transition is a race that can only be won by the most advanced technologies and engineers with unique minds for creative solutions.

Otherwise, we risk getting caught in a loop of perpetual motion with respect to greenhouse gas emissions.

The story of hydrogen has been a cautionary tale to this end.
