Quilt Square Upload
Project Description
This project aims to understand how collaborative AR experiences can contribute to social-emotional learning, translate personal and familial narratives and creations, and develop a sense of a larger community.
Through community workshops, we encourage participants to tell their COVID stories through the creation of an e-textile quilt square that harnesses both audio and visual components.
Leveraging AR technology, HER Lab has developed a dynamic augmented reality experience, which constructs a virtual quilt around the participant’s quilt square. When users point their device at a square of the quilt, the square is expanded and its unique sound or narrative plays.
In April of 2022, HER Lab collected data for this project for the first time at a community art gallery.
