How We Work
We approach our work with a community-driven research process, inviting community members to be directly involved with decision-making and to be engaged with what we create together. United, we will utilize technology, design, art, and culture to cultivate community connections that promote cultural knowledge sharing, build technical expertise, and encourage exploration of science and art.
