The Open Letter Project (NMI 2008): Fueling Voices
Produced by Andrea Lewis, Therese Arroyo-Matanane (Guam), Sachi Fujimori (NJ). Jori Lewis (NY), Jun Wang (CA)
The "Fueling Voices" New Media Institute 2008 project is a collage of shared and user generated information. It includes images, video, facts, figures, and opinions on the fuel crisis in America and how Americans are coping with the fuel/gas/energy issues that affect our lives. The goal is to present visual information and interactive media that reflects the collective dialogue of Americans. In addition, the web site will serve as a repository for citizens to continue to share how the immediate fuel economy affects them personally and join in the discussion on what alterations they are willing to embrace to make a significant change for our collective future.
