67% Informative

The Portal is an always-on live video feed housed in a futuristic, industrial-style circle, connecting two cities from around the world.

A Lithuanian entrepreneur created the project after realizing that his success in the Lithuanian startup sphere still left him feeling unfulfilled in his life.

A few bad apples can ruin the experience for everyone.

You can see through the Portal , but you can’t hear, so we communicate through gestures.

The novelty must have worn off already abroad these Portals have existed for a few years .

One man in Poland timidly showed us some dance moves, and our horde of enthusiastic Philadelphians , experiencing the Portal for the first time, would mimic it back.
