Abstract:
This talk will address the potential for leveraging physical-digital technologies in public-realm interventions which help offer fuller engagements in our current realities. It will serve as a platform to present the project Uptown Underground, which uses projections and accelerometer data to bring urban context down into an underground subway ride, as well as an in-the-works intervention which uses photovoltaic cells tuned to LED screens and air cooling methods to critique mass energy waste in Times Square.
