Escape - A Refugee Story

This hypermedia narrative focuses upon the reality of war and being caught in the crossfire. It is a nonlinear experience that uses visual, kinetic, and sonic elements in order to immerse the reader -- who takes on the persona of a new mother as she tries to escape with her child from her wartorn home. There are multiple outcomes to the story, and as such, it is encouraged to go through the piece more than once.

I used a variety of open-source creative commons image and audio files within this piece. All narrative-text is original and authentic.
