An immersive journey where you become part of the story. Take a selfie, form a big family with the other participants and travel six generations into the future.
With your smartphone as your guide, you explore possible future scenarios in this live group experience, by building a fictional family tree with others. Through AI, generations unfold, connect with each other and ask the question: what kind of ancestor do I (or perhaps: do we) want to be? Because together with your “co-parents”, the decisions and interactions in the story are determined. You jointly influence the outcome of the experience. This extraordinary work of Steye Hallema offers speculative fiction, interactive storytelling, real-time decision-making and food for thought.
