A Funeral for the Internet was an interactive performance piece celebrating the life of the internet. I co-led the development of a system that supported dozens of users who each recieve unique dialogue in response to the live authored, mixed-reality performance.

Directed by Samantha Gorman, UCSC LEMI Lab. With Danny Cannizaro, Daniel Howe, J Nolan, Jack Kelly, Vera Zhong, and the students of Winter and Spring CMPM 180.

Shown at the Royal Shakespeare Company Festival of Ideas, the inaugural TIFF International Financing & Project Market, and the Immersive Venice Gap-Financing Market.
