About GowanusAR
GowanusAR is an immersive augmented reality (AR) experience that brings the layered histories of Brooklyn’s Gowanus Canal to life. Walk the streets and uncover voices, stories, and sounds embedded in the land. In our debut scene, you’ll encounter speculative futures, industrial pasts, and sonic portals, all triggered by your location. Features: Augmented Reality Navigation: Explore a site-specific scene designed to unfold as you move through the Gowanus neighborhood. Immersive Audio: Spatial soundscapes respond to your position, layering narration, ambiance, and historical textures. Interactive Storytelling: Engage with dynamic AR elements that reveal hidden aspects of Gowanus’ environmental and cultural evolution. Speculative Histories: Encounter narrative fragments that blur the boundaries between past, present, and possible futures. This is just the beginning. More scenes and voices will be released soon. Headphones recommended. Location access required.
