FEATURING

GREEN PEOPLE // RICK AND JEFF KUPERMAN AND ZACH EISENSTAT
["Real" World]

Green People is a short film in development that examines the complex way that shared fictions shape our individual and collective realities. Two stories interweave: Jacob plays an action-packed spy adventure game about a stolen artifact in virtual reality; Rachel cuts ties with her workplace lover and prepares for her husband's arrival after a long business trip.

THE CALLA CO // CALLA VIDET
["Real" Value]

the calla co is an art and fashion project exploring how and what we value and how 'unreal' stories can be woven into 'real' things.

SECOND BODY // ARLO HILL
["Real" Self]

Second Body will provide a one-of-a-kind service, offering the chance to interact with the world remotely through your own physical avatar.

PORTRAIT // LISTEN ON ITUNES TODAY
["Real" Story]

Portrait is the story of a disappearanceI think. Its a mystery I stumbled on when I wasnt supposed to be looking for it. Now I cant stop looking. For an immersive experience, you listen to the podcast in the Salomon Room at the NY Public Library, where the story takes place. Plus, you can see what Im talking about by following me on Instagram: @maxisonthegram
