Story Introducing Unforgotten – an installation/exhibit that featured lifelike statues of gun violence victims in their actual clothes. A mobile app identified the nametag on each statue, activating video of a life that was lost but not forgotten. The app connected you to a website where you could read and share more stories of victims. Most importantly, the app also enabled you to immediately take action by volunteering and by signing a petition for change. The entire experience was documented with an online film. 
Problem 30,000 victims die from gun violence in the US every year. People have become numb. How do you overcome their apathy and compel them to get involved? You turn apathy into action by bringing back the victims to tell their stories. And you bring them back with a live event in public spaces where they simply can’t be ignored.
