-ENDURING TOMORROW’S HELL- CARRYING NOVEL APPLICATIONSIN A WORLD THAT WE BEGIN TO KNOW NOW

My practice has most fundamentally been about generating compelling storytelling through exploiting emerging technologies.

After careful consideration of the timeline of the event at gay bi gay gay, I have decided to expand my project into one that dealt most with a bridging of not only this installation, which will be a concretization of

thecore concepts laid out in a previous project, Empire County Survival

Foundry.

Empire County was a suite of products that spoke directly to New Yorkers about climate change in a post-Sandy context. There were fully conceptualized prototypes, a look book replete with visual and material

context, as well as a distinct voice that merged insane humour with serious gravitas.

There are strategies that I will continue to reference.

Moreso, I plan to bring about a transmedia approach to create an immersive environment that deems a credible dialogue about the risks and dangers we face, and how my designs might assuage chaos.

This includes a finalization of product developments for the unfinished physical products, a virtual video look book performed in front of a green screen, a web portal with interactive elements to support the

scenarios represented in the collection, including a game environment of a scenario in first person shooter. In a culmination of these efforts, I will work with Yes Lab on introducing these objects and more

largely this world as real and necessary commodities for consumers to desire.
