Visualizing Systemic Housing Inequality (Fall 2021)

This project used the tools of live performance and big data to visualize the racial wealth gap and housing inequality in Durham. Team members examined how housing inequality has been practiced city-wide and created an interactive installation in the Rubenstein Arts Center. The installation was animated by a live performance that incorporates the artists of SLIPPAGE: Performance|Culture|Technology alongside team members in a series of events. The performance included a “reparations playground” component where performance participants visualized the impact various reparations might have to help audiences see the necessity of reparations for healing.
