We invite you to be a part of the conversation.
GAKU
|
CREATED BY
Patrick Dinnen, Deiren Masterson, Jefferson Wright & Angella Mackey
Any relationship requires consistent and meaningful communication to blossom into a truly loving connection. Nowhere is this more true than in the engagement between a grandparent and a grandchild, especially when distance divides them. With GAKU, we have created a one-to-one communication tool that allows for the direct sharing of images, along with an embedded audio message that provides the story behind the picture. Sharing moments big and small, old and new, GAKU creates an essential inter-generational archive that will be cherished within a gorgeous wooden casing. Preserving generations of wisdom and imagination - do you GAKU?

TRANSPORT
LIFE HAPPENS IN PUBLIC TRANSPORT
|
CREATED BY
Carlito Ghioni & Isabella Stefanescu
A series of very short video clips of stories that happened on buses, streetcars and trains, delivered on interactive screens, TRANSPORT invites us to think of public transport as a third space, and of commuting as an occasion for insight into our fellow travellers. |
 |
|
The authors of TRANSPORT would like people to think of public transport as a “third space,” one of those places like a café, a library, a plaza or a gallery. that are neither home nor work, but where an important part of city life takes place. A bus, or a train, or a station, is a place where we witness the life of others; a place of chance encounters; a place where amusing and alarming things can happen; a place of romance and heartbreak
