Title: Portaleza
Venue and Format: Instructions through mail including visual and auditory elements.
Innovation: “Audience members will be mailed a mysterious package. Make sure to follow the guide. When the moment arrives, you will discover that the humble contents of this parcel hold the key to unlocking a visual reality beyond your realm of imagination.”
What hope remains when one sends a message into the ether with no guarantee of a response? Much like the notion of sending a message in a bottle, Portaleza (derived from the words “portal” and “fortaleza”, meaning strength/fortress) is a digital experience that explores ideas of connection through desperate means of correspondence.
