"Make visible what, without you, might perhaps never have been seen"
Community Cross-Pollinator for the End of Life Challenge at OpenIDEO. I am a multidisciplinary artist, designer, storyteller, and educator. For the last three years, I have been exploring different ways of communicating through informal everyday interactions to online and digitally immersive experiences. I believe that we have to cherish, preserve and revere stories of our past in order to understand where we are today, and that we need to explore and contemplate our presence as self-aware beings in order create a better future as 21st-century leaders of tomorrow.

Creative ways we cope and find peace
This architect says it's time to design for aging starting early.
This is some really cool and futuristic stuff! I would love to see you "act out' some of these scenarios with friends or family. What if you were a passed family member talking to a current family member? What would he/she say about the experience? Test it out with someone you trust - what is their feedback?
Awesome (:
Have you thought about how this might be prototyped and tested out? It's important to get user feedback early on even if it's a very primitive "test-drive".
