1906 Atlanta - AR

For four days in September of 1906 in Atlanta, Georgia, a white mob - incited by the race-baiting of politicians and local newspapers - violently attacked the black community across the city. Using volumetric performances, hand-drawn Quill image and AI animations, this augmented reality project allows audiences to follow writer and editor Jesse Max Barber's as he tries to tell the world this buried truth.

This piece was made in a collaboration with the National Center for Civil and Human Rights and award-winning Emblematic Group’s director Nonny de la Peña, who has more than a decade of AR/VR experience, alongside a consultancy with director Alton Glass and journalist Retha Hill.
