Step 3 – Your assignment: from social issue to AR concept
​
Now it is your turn!
 

The assignment

Choose a social or societal issue that matters to you or your community.

Design an AR artwork that tells a story about this issue in a public space.

This is a conceptual assignment. You do not need to build the AR artwork technically. Focus on idea, meaning, and imagination.
 

What to work on (in small groups - 2 to 4 students)
 

Discuss and define:

1. The social issue

   • What topic do you choose?

     • Examples of themes (optional):

     • Climate & sustainability

     • Inequality / inequality of opportunity

     • Mental health

     • Waste, consumption & circularity

     • Local community / traditions

   • Motivate your choice.
      

2. The message

   • What do you want people to feel, think, or question?

   • What story are you telling?
      

3. The form

   • What does your AR artwork look like?

   • Is it a sculpture, symbol, object, or abstract form?

   • Create a manual or digital sketch
      

4. The location

   • Where would this AR artwork appear?

   • Why is this location meaningful for your story?
      

5. The interaction

   • How do people experience the artwork?

   • Do they walk around it, discover it, or encounter it unexpectedly?
