With(in) is a multi-stage project that includes an exhibit, installation, qualitative exploration, and visual storytelling.
This is a story about connection. The City Science group presents an immersive window into the worlds of three women in three settlements: Gihan in Cairo, Egypt; Eva in Guadalajara, Mexico; and Mama G in Port Harcourt, Nigeria. Through 360-degree videos and 3D physical urban models representing each of those communities, we experience activities from the mundane to the surreal, from the deeply meaningful to the inconsequential. We visit the vertical slums and bustling restaurants of Cairo, the fringe neighborhoods and community centers in Guadalajara, and the tiny homes and crowded markets of Port Harcourt. In the lives of each individual, we examine the micro and the macro, from the gentle care of fixing one's hair each morning to the cultural swells of holidays, religious ceremonies, and funerals. In these places, far from our own, we learn and inquire, we gather and we listen, in the hope of better understanding the complexity of the world and possibilities for how will we live together in the future.
