Paul Notzold is on a mission to explore the role of the mobile device to interact with physical surroundings and build community and not only to escape from our physical space.

TXTual Healing is an ongoing public space project exploring the mobile phone as a way to interact and connect with the physical space we move through everyday. The initial project started as interactive speech bubbles projected on the sides of buildings as if coming out of the windows, giving an audience the ability to be a part of the public performance through text messaging. It has since evolved into other free speech writing tools as well as interactive graphic stories.
