ARtivism: AR-Enabled Accessible Public Art and Advocacy
Abstrak
Activism can take a multitude of forms, including protests, social media campaigns, and even public art. The uniqueness of public art lies in that both the act of creation and the artifacts created can serve as activism. Furthermore, public art is often site-specific and can be created with (e.g., commissioned murals) or without permission (e.g., graffiti art) of the site's owner. However, the majority of public art is inaccessible to blind and low vision people, excluding them from political and social action. In this position paper, we build on a prior crowdsourced mural description project and describe the design of one potential process artifact, ARtivism, for making public art more accessible via augmented reality. We then discuss tensions that may occur at the intersection of public art, activism, and technology.
