Currently on display at the El Condado shopping center in Quito, Ecuador, is the [Coca-Cola](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coca-cola-y3000-zero-sugar) Cascada exhibit, a giant 52-foot-tall [digital fountain](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-fontana-di-peroni) that provides an innovative and interactive 3D experience.

[Nexus Interactive Arts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-club-campaign), a London-based production studio, created this amazing art installation over the span of eighth months. The production company used a special technology to create a 3D waterfall, allowing the viewer to see colorful bursts of water falling down the fountain -- no special glasses required.

What's more, viewers can interact with the Coca-Cola Cascada exhibit by having their motions captured and mirrored on the fountain -- their movements actually the way the water falls -- as they stand inside a special hub area that faces a screen. According to Popsop, this interactive part of the exhibit is part of Coca-Cola’s aim to encourage its youth customers to participate, rather than being just a viewer.
