Civil Dialog

EGS, Drexel University, John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, Gossamer Games,
ABOUT
Civil Dialog as a project aims to encourage communication through technical engagement. Created by Drexel Professor, Dr. Frank Lee, he and his team have worked to develop a way to increase interactions between various communities. Dr. Lee hopes to create a lasting, productive, informative dialogue from groups who may have otherwise not had the opportunity to communicate openly with each other.
GOALS
Our goal at the Entrepreneurial Game Studio (EGS) is to install and operate a large scale, interactive projection on a Drexel building and over an online stream in order to facilitate civil, productive discussion of current events and social issues.
SERVICE
In order to serve and inform the community, Civil Dialog hopes to utilize online streaming as well as in-person large scale projection to facilitate productive conversations about current events and social issues. Our hope is to create a dialogue where residents and viewers can develop empathetic views and become co-creators of public spaces both virtual and local on Drexel University Campus.
