Cosmos

Cosmos consist of interviews with immigrants in South Florida. The interviews document their journey into the United States. After the interviews were conducted, they were summarized and adapted to English.

Cosmos is a game world that host these immigrant stories. The audience is transported into an aquatic world on the brink of submersion. The audience selects the story from a menu with magical orbs. Each orb activates a different experience. Each experience plays an interview and turns the audience into a different avatar. Finally they are free to explore the world or find small animations which correspond to the narrative being unfolded.

This is an ongoing project as interviews are still being conducted. You can read the stories here.
