KALEIDOSCOPE
Kaleidoscope is an exploration of our current world and a possible future through the lens of Dataism and the tool of storytelling.
While designing the world, instead of using a top-down prescriptive approach, I took the perspective of someone already lost within it. I the used current events, scientific discoveries, historical precedents, and personal problematics to help me discover this new reality.
References are used to find common ground with the viewer and to help agitate common dialectics and oppositional forces inherent in science fiction.
Throughout the larger book, this history is uncovered three times, filtered through the mind of a different people, using different modes of predictive storytelling.
