Please join us for a multidimensional collaborative event facilitated by artists Ashley Browne and Jacklyn Brickman that will be held virtually at Mozilla Hubs on May 16, 2020 from 6-8pm. 

We have been working on a collaborative installation, Fructify: Reclaiming the Present and Forming a Fruitful Future,  that we had planned to share with you at the Fuse Factory on May 16. Since we continue to be in isolation from each other, for all of our safety, we have found a way to continue our collaboration AND to share a virtual, 3D, interactive space with you all! 

Informed by community input, the artists have built an other-worldly, multimedia virtual space that incorporates thoughts and imagery shared by several community members. 

You are invited to collaborate with us! For the event, please have ready an online link to a video, image, gif, 3D model or sound clip to share that acknowledges the past with a sentimentality that you feel should inform the future. Please make sure 3D models are .glb or send any non .glb 3D models to FructifyFuture@gmail.com by Wednesday, May 13 to the email provided below to ensure they are formatted correctly. (Links work well from youtube, sound cloud, vimeo, and google images, etc. by copying the "image location" or clicking on the item “share link” and then pasting it directly into the space)

Mozilla Hubs works similarly to zoom, in that you are able to share your mic to converse with others in the space, as well as your video (if you choose). You can navigate the space and are represented by the avatar and screen name of your choice. It’s easy, and fun and we hope you will jump right in. 

We’re so glad to have found a way to gather virtually!
