Meet Kristin Lucas, creator of FLARMINGO STOPOVER!
FLARMINGO STOPOVER invites excursionists and wayfarers to mingle with flamingos in social, fun and ecologically-ethical ways through technological embodiment and magical realism. “Dance with flARmingos: Interspecies Dance” brings you into a flamingo world as a flamingo avatar and “FLARMINGOS” lets you populate your surroundings with life-size augmented reality flamingos, pick up flamingo dance moves researched by scientists, listen to flamingo-inspired music, and adopt a wild flamingo
