#ferguson is an interactive sculpture piece about the collective responsibility and accountability of racism/violence in America. In order to see the animation (in the zoetrope) you must pull the trigger (the gun is a switch). The animation is a Black boy being shot. I want to bring awareness to the idea of a collective hand.

Redesigning intake forms

Evan Wu, Sharon De La Cruz

Using a game like structure, I am proposing to redesign intake forms for unaccompanied minors crossing the U.S./Mexico border in order to better reflect their narratives.

Description

Using a game like structure, I am proposing redesigning intake forms for unaccompanied minors crossing the U.S./Mexico border in order to better reflect their narratives. This is important because as the number of minors crossing the border rises, their narratives get muffled by media and anti-immigration narratives. With this platform I am attempting to give back power to the child by allowing them to curate their narrative by masking a traditional intake form as a game that explores their life.
