Environmental Sustainability in Phnom Penh

Michael Kuetemeyer is exploring the effects of climate change and environmental sustainability in Cambodia. Understanding these environmental phenomena requires seeing broader spans of time. New media technologies using AR/VR allow us to tap into this idea of seeing the past, present and future at the same time. This enables a deeper understanding of the ways in which our actions today determine how the environment is affected in the future. Using his digital art practice Michael is applying techniques of community collaboration, time lens, analysis, dance language, and an app/VR project developed for ongoing facilitation, communication, and innovation.
