TRANSFORM.
In order to create more empathetic experiences, we need to create more embodied experiences. We must reimagine liveness through our embodied relationship with technology. By utilizing my Embodiment Design approach, which treats visitors to immersive experiences as humans, not props, we can both keep people safe and incite more powerful emotional reactions to our work.
I have spoken and led workshops at National Endowment for the Arts, Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts, Verizon’s 5G Lab, Lincoln Center, Theatre Communications Group National Conference, Creative Tech Week, and NYU.
