At the Columbia University School of the Arts, Digital Storytelling Lab, we build on a diverse range of creative and research practices from the arts, humanities and technology. With technology as a creative partner, Columbia DSL is a place of speculation and collaboration between students and faculty from across the University.From 2020-2022, I helped Columbia University's School of Professional Studies shift in-person programs to virtual and hybrid curriculum. In my course, "Designing Futures: New Media World-building" students in the pre-college Academic Year Immersion program created collaborative art to motivate climate action. Their work was minted to the tezos blockchain and is on display in our virtual Museum for the Futures and on objkt.com. Student work was also shown in Paris at the NFT Impact show at the NFT Factory (2022) and SXSWEdu (2021).
