The first-ever, virtual IDM showcase of over 130 installations will feature a digital project database, live streams, interactive online events, student presentations, live Q&A sessions, and more. Among the projects are:
- A digital magazine that showcases frank, realistic stories of diverse women to initiate genuine conversations about expectations, ambitions, obstacles, and triumphs
- A photo collage series created to find a more relatable approach to understanding what our friends and family who live with addiction experience
- An anti-face-recognition helmet that can be customized to display an array of coruscating designs
- A work that uses a data scraping app to create a visual representation of the emotional valence of a news article or social post
- A speculative user interface design for extraterrestrial exploration
- An adventure game using Pokémon Essentials, which allows people to explore media censorship in an imaginary town.
