ABSTRACT
The interactive video will demonstrate how an individual yearns to survive dystopia as he/she struggles to fight the solitude, control, and chaos of society. As each photo of myself is taken, it will also trigger a new sound file as a way to intensify the mood of being alone. This work was created by an interactive design prototype for Max-MSP software (programmer: Martin Ritter), whereby I design how people can talk to the microphone and affect the visuals to symbolize saving one another and humanity as a whole. While demonstrating this work alone, it also powerfully suggests what it means to adapt in the constantly evolving post- covid era.

Designing for dystopia: software engineering research for the post-apocalypse
FSE 2016: Proceedings of the 2016 24th ACM SIGSOFT International Symposium on Foundations of Software EngineeringSoftware engineering researchers have a tendency to be optimistic about the future. Though useful, optimism bias bolsters unrealistic expectations towards desirable outcomes. We argue that explicitly framing software engineering research through ...
Utopia Rising
Utopian science fiction prototypes might not actually be about the world that we want to live in, but rather the people we want to be. The Web extra at http://vimeo.com/81120151 is a video segment in which author Brian David Johnson joins Geek Speaks ...
