meaning from...
interactivity
agency
creativity
Bring people together
Make a space more welcoming
Be expressive
Experiments in interactive interfaces
Opportunities to connect to a space
We can design new ways for people to engage with public spaces
New and underrepresented narratives can be surfaced and expressed
Visibility is voice
Being able to "touch"
across public space
over the internet
between digital and physical
We can widen the commons
and make it more welcoming
Activated public space gives new ways to know one another
new ways to be expressive and playful
new ways to find joy.
