Portals is a global public art initiative. Each Portal is a shipping container painted gold and equipped with immersive audio-visual technology. Upon entering a Portal, visitors come face-to-face with someone in an identical Portal elsewhere on Earth. The two participants can converse live, full-body, making eye contact, as if in the same room. Many participants have described feeling as though they were “breathing the same air.” Through diagrams, drawings, text, and photographs, this book recounts the founding of Portals in 2014 and its expansion around the world in 2015.
