Perception and Legel Geography: Facilitating Interaction with Invisible Boundaries
through AR-VR
Gabriel Cuéllar and Athar Mufreh

The goal of this project is to produce an AR-VR environment that facilitates interaction with legal boundaries, which are invisible but have substantial material, political, and social impacts, for designers and the broader public.

InVisible Infrastructures:

Elisa Ngan, Laura Ngan, Abhishek Narula


InVisible Infrastructures prototype show repair will be embedded in data architectures in the current and near-future by spatially prototyping the liminal work flows of air plane mechanics and visualizing the data systems and work flows necessary to create the experience.

Model Shot:
Glamorizing the Visualization of People in Space
John McMorrough, Julia McMorrough, Ana Morcillo Pallarés, Jonathan Rule
As the issues of representation (both literal and conceptual) find new relevancies within an expanding range of identities, the project “Model Shots: Glamorizing the Visualization of People in Space” develops new modes of being seen at the intersection of emerging technologies (immersive digitality) and long-standing architectural convention (locations and their depictions) as a testing ground for developing imaginaries of how people see themselves in a wide range of contexts.

Pluriversal Governance:
Visualizing Organizations for Architecture
Jose Sanchez & Ivan Gort-Cabeza de Vaca

This project will examine the composition and outcomes of various organizational structures for the production of architecture, such as a limited liability company, non-profit structures or cooperative models. The project proposes the development of interactive visualization tools which will open a conversation regarding presently existing models with their incentive structures as well as propose new speculative organizations.
