Imagining the Future of the City

This installation for Exhibit Columbus installed across from City Hall encourages the public to share future visions for the city with the mayor's office. I was hired by Extrapolation Factory to do all of the programming for the experience - developed in React with a Contentful CMS and Firebase to handle uploads. Working with these tools allowed us to create the installation quickly and on a modest budget.
