Wicked Equity! #MakeUsVisible NYC 2022
The Extended Reality Ensemble
The Extended Reality Ensemble presents a gender-equity visibility festival Wicked Equity! #MakeUsVisible NYC 2022, featuring gender equity videos with closed captions, performances, and conversations. This performance is designed to celebrate and to raise awareness to the spectacular 31 AR NY Monuments spanning across all five boroughs. In the videos featured, digital sculptures of gender diverse figures are juxtaposed against statues of men across the five boroughs of New York City. An interactive map guides viewers to 31 virtual monuments shown in Augmented Reality, while an audio tour tells the stories of each sculpture. People can use their smartphone screens and reveal the true face of the city, and are encourage to share their images with #MakeUsVisible hashtag to expand this conversation globally. Anyone can be a part of this performance/conversation through this link: xrensemble.com
