Join artist Luciana Haill for a guided walking tour with a special augmented reality (AR) experience, revealing Magnus Volk’s sea-faring train Pioneer (The Daddy Long Legs) travelling the same route.Starting at Banjo Groyne on the beach (cross the road and down the steps from Paston Place, Kemptown), this 1.3 mile guided walk reveals the history of the fragile train (1896–1901). Using the free Pioneer AR app (Android & iOS), participants will see and follow the full-scale train by scanning out to sea, the artwork is geo-tagged to its original tracks, right through The Strand in Brighton Marina.
Towards the end of the walk the augmented reality train will slowly loom over us in Brighton Marina, haunting its route to Rottingdean.
Capture time-travelling photos and experience history through AR, 5G, and Starlink technology. Vintage-style postcards souvenirs trigger the experience off-site with a musical accompaniment for all guests.
Experience history like never before.
