The [[Orbital]] project is almost finished. It will be exhibited in February as part of the Telefonica exhibit in Madrid. The theme we explored in this one is 'positive future'. My sense was to go back to the work of Gerard K O'Neill and make an updated [[game]] version. Some intro: Orbital is an immersive simulation that offers a glimpse into a future space settlement. The project foregrounds speculative technologies: Space-Based Solar Power and Space Mining + their implications for the future of humanity. Orbital is an exploration of complex [[system]]s, interactions, and behaviors in a new space-age setting. ![[or1bitalS.png]] The UI is still not final, and the structure keeps changing every day - we have an amazing number of procedurally generated spatial modules with layers of structure. Soon I'll be posting much more + a pitch deck.
