Transform, Justice, Corporation, Outrage
Welcome to the year 2028; the last of the environmental protections in United States were abolished by congress in 2027. One year later, we look at the small town of Apex, NC for a glimpse into the past. We launch the Historic Adventures app and select the year 2018 from a list of dates. The app dutifully renders the scene, presenting us with the wondrous site of foliage, long since stripped from the land.
Foliage may be gone, but an egregious set of artifacts are almost as pervasive. Advertising now runs rampant in the town. Consumer protection laws do little to stop the mega corporation that has risen from the ashes of a charred earth.
With a renewed desire for justice, the group of citizens stand behind the viewscreen of the Historic Adventures app. They march on Congress tomorrow; anger fuels their drive and commitment for reform. It’s too late for Apex, but the planet can still be saved.
Awesome job Joe and Graham! It’s amazing to see how your design ideas develop from the initial rough idea to fully integrating these key elements with a super catchy storyline. I see this technology as a crucial tool in the movement that offers direct proof of the evolution of the town with a visual illustration of the “before vs. now” and nothing is as powerful as what this can provide. Well done!!
