WAYFINDER is an expression of our connectedness to the natural world. It's an opportunity to renew a damaged ecosystem through discovery and verse. The calming, contemplative gameplay is symbolic of the cause-and-effect relationship humans have with nature. It underscores our role in both affecting, but ultimately remedying, the effects of climate change through action and a greater appreciation of the environment.The art is generative. The visual assets and poetry are assembled procedurally and algorithmically through code, creating different combinations for each new visitor. The textured, hand-illustrated aesthetic is delivered in real-time, and the poetic verses are created with a mix of artificial intelligence/machine learning and generative processes, providing thousands of possible combinations. As such, Wayfinder is an ever-changing, emergent artwork with infinite possibilities. Each time it runs, it produces a new and individualized world.
