In this immersive, documentary-style augmented reality adventure, we gain a front-row seat to the epic journey of clandestine migration across the US-Mexico border. Enter a 3D gateway to the Sonoran Desert and the experience kicks off immediately. Your mission is to gather the real-life items left behind by migrants in their wake. As you stumble upon these artifacts—a discarded water bottle, a forgotten picture frame, a tattered bible—the audio narratives of migrant voices are finally revealed. Through both everyday objects and sacred relics, the tragic and the humorous stories of migrants spring to life with voice-activated technology. As their tales unfold, a dialogue begins and users are tasked with contributing their own reflections.
