Led a team in creating and wire-framing "Homemade Histories”: a mobile app solution. This would allow oral histories—personal, familial and communal—to be recorded and interactively re-mixed collaboratively with NYPL histories for streams, podcasts, social media. These newly remixed histories could be shared for future collaborators to build upon and re-mix, extending NYPL's rich repository beyond its current confines, across generations—the present with the past—and throughout the world.
