Navigating Complexity: Exploring the Paris Agreement Through Interactive Projections
Introduction
The Interactive Issue transforms the traditional newspaper into a dynamic, immersive experience. At its core, The Interactive Issue is not just a newspaper; it's an interactive journey.
In an exhibition setting, users are invited to engage with the newspaper in a way that transcends the conventional reading experience. Attendees at the exhibition have the opportunity to interact with the printed material, triggering text overlays that provide insights and explanations related to the complex treaty text of the Paris Agreement.

The Paris Agreement
The Paris Agreement is the first global agreement on climate protection. The treaty was adopted by 195 countries and the European Union at the COP21 climate conference held in Paris in 2015.
Limiting global warming to as close as possible to 1.5 degrees Celsius compared to the pre-industrial era is the most well-known goal of the agreement.
Goal
By infusing a sense of playfulness into the format, the Interactive Issue aims to break down barriers and make the Paris Agreement more accessible to a diverse audience. Rather than presenting the treaty text in a conventional, intimidating manner, the interactive projections create a bridge between the legal language of the agreement and the general public's understanding.
The Interactive Issue not only experiments with how we consume information but also advocates for a more playful and engaging approach to understanding complex subject matter.
The Interactive Issue fuses traditional print and interactive technology to spark curiosity and foster a deeper connection with critical global issues like climate change.
Projections
Through thoughtfully projected explanatory texts, users are seamlessly guided through the critical articles of the treaty. These projections serve as navigational aides, shedding light on both established objectives and potential shortcomings, providing users with a comprehensive understanding of the agreement's intricacies.
The Interactive Paper goes beyond the surface, delving critically into the text of the agreement, elucidating its inner workings through the lens of five key political principles.
