Don’t Look Cats Directly in the Eyes

Join us on a walk around a small part of the city of Lincoln. Lincoln has many little quirks that not a lot people know about. It’s all about having the right tour guide, one who can point out the charming wildlife (not rats I promise), and beautiful art pieces that reach a little too close to the sun.

Be the Bee

Be the Bee

Wake up! You're a worker bee, and it's time to do your job. Go out in search of flowers to collect some pollen. Maybe you'll find more bugs along the way! But be careful—not all bugs are friendly.  For this experience, it is recommended that you become familiar with cardinal directional cues. It is also recommended that you play this experience when flowers are still in bloom. If you need more specific directions, here is the route key: Lincoln Community Foundation Tower --> South Centennial Mall Greenspace --> North Centennial Mall Greenspace --> South End of Canfield Administration Building --> Love Library South Entrance Pathway --> Love Library or Madden Garden --> Emerging Media Arts Building

spatial gods.

revisit a new world: allow the city to fade away as the space around you takes the form of deities. description: hello, and welcome to my Story City project! for this project, I wanted to create some 'gods' that could possibly exist within the mythology of downtown Lincoln. aimed for younger kids who need something to do while their parents are at Fly Gym or to stretch their Zoom-tired legs, this work acts as a sample chapter of a larger story. route: 1. god-king, again. 2. eldest son. 3. youngest son. 4. the lovers. 5. the lesser. 6. god-king, finally. instructions: 1. follow the route of echoes listed above. 2. mind the other people near you; this area can become crowded at times, so watch out for yourself as well as others 3. try to line the exact position you're standing in up with the line of sight in the art of whichever echo you're in hot tips: 1. when standing in front of the 'ascent' sculpture, try to line yourself up with the plaque in the very front of the statue. 2. some goblins occasionally shift the table to the right of 'ascent'; be on alert for a table you have to track down. 3. when crossing the street from youngest son. to the lovers. + returning back to the god-king, please use the crosswalk!! 4. try standing on the opposite side of the 'ascent' sculpture a try during the second echo in that location. 5. enjoy!

In exchange, you are given her story, as well as a new understanding of the world around you. You need something to draw or write with for this walk. It is recommended that you keep one ear free when walking between locations, so the ambient noises around you can add to the experience.

You Have Reached the Voicemail Box of...

[DO NOT USE NOISE CANCELLATION HEADPHONES] You are nothing more than a bystander to other's stories. Each person lives differently than you, our paths aren't the same. There is so much history that follows a person - even the mind can't fully comprehend the infinite possibilities of another's life. You are nothing more than a listener and a observer to life.
