AR poetry about the small changes in the climate occurring around us
2023 — Co-created with J.R. Carpenter
In this project, we use augmented reality to overlay the user's surroundings with signage posing questions about past and present climatic conditions. Why is the sky so blue? Has it always rained? These signs call attention to the small changes in the climate already occurring all around us, inviting playful responses.
このプロジェクトでは、過去と現在の気候状況に関する質問を提示する看板を、ユーザーの周囲に拡張現実(AR)で配置します。「いつも雨が降っていた?」「蜂はどこ?」これらの看板は、すでに私たちの周りで起こっている気候の小さな変化に注意を喚起し、遊び心のある反応を促します。
