In our radically changing media landscape, storytellers are struggling with a basic question, “where is storytelling going?” The answer lies in design and technology, the key elements in reaching new audiences in innovative and engaging ways.
Join us for an evening in which we will explore the future of storytelling where design, innovation and technology are at the forefront. We will discuss and demonstrate new emerging platforms, and share design centric experiences in the areas of virtual reality, animation, digital art, film and experiential. It’s a world seen through the eyes of some of Brooklyn’s most innovative storytellers. We invite you to venture deep into the heart of Brooklyn for an experience that will be part installation, part discussion and definitely a party.

“Putting women in their place with AR”
How can we use Creativity and Technology to confront people and make them empathize with (and take action on) the realities of gender inequality?
Y&R New York’s The Whole Story Project is a project that allows for the placement of virtual statues of notable women in history. The aim is to create parity in public representation and share the accomplishments of women.
The project’s mobile app and online platform, designed along with Current Studios, makes it possible for people to see, share and add new virtual statues alongside existing public statues. Using augmented reality and GPS location technology, users locate and view statues using markers on a map and can also find details of their contributions.
The Whole Story Project will work with creators and developers worldwide to build and place statues of women in their own cities. The Whole Story Project is also championing efforts to create physical statues of real women in communities around the world such as the Monumental Women campaign of the Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony Statue Fund in New York City.
