How could a language between humans and objects look like? Maye like FUNGAUGE - a new form of language enabling humans and non-living material to communicate more effectively with each other. BANDAI NAMCO Group, a globally leading entertainment company, and Hakuhodo have been researching this question since 2017, together with the Ars Electronica Futurelab, building on the idea that FUN could be a universal language that transcends cultural boundaries. The current research progress and background is shown in a FUNGUAGE ROOM, where the new language is installed in a real-life environment.
