This phase 1 version includes an interactive video experience with the interface of the application, Petga, along with a 3D modelling tool that allows users to create multi-media GIFs to communicate through visuals.’ As an application for Android and iOS compatible mobile devices, ARTPOP aims to be accessible worldwide. Overall this app involves sharing content, building their own projects and communicating with other Lady Gaga fans within a virtual community.
