Booom City is a playful technological installation combining the Mediterranean popular stakes [Hogueras](ephemeral urban monument burned in the summer equinox night) built with traditional construction techniques with the use of new technologies to offer an expanded experience of the city through the use of an Augmented Reality App and the Smartphone. The installation reconstructs fragments of disappeared cinemas, spas, and ballrooms to be enjoyed again by the citizens, who can rediscover and interact with those places in a virtual way.
