2030:

2030:

We believe society will be more flexible and resilient.

We will be more connected, both physically and virtually,
and less limited by geographic location.

The overabundance of content in 2030 will require technological assistance
in utilizing a vast ocean of information and knowledge.

A greater confidence in who we are and what we love will provide the
framework to mix and grow, as individuals and as a society.

Finding
Each Other

"Finding Each Other" is our overall theme.

It talks about using technology to strengthen interpersonal relationships, both physically and virtually in 2030

3 Stories

3 stories

Animation Stories about "Finding Each Other"
Three stories are: Finding Love, Finding Friendship and Finding Community utilizing animation as the major artistic expression method to discuss about our theme "Finding Each Other" from three different perspectives.

Finding
Love

"Finding Love" is a story about two elderly citizens of different cultures who come together and bond over the realization that they both have deep memories on the same bench of a park.

Finding
Friendship

"Finding Love" discusses the relationship between us and artificial intelligence instead of slavery, we believe in the year 2030, AI will become important companion to humans.

Finding
Community

"Finding Community" discusses the huge change that will take place in our community.

It starts with a mother being transported from 2016 to 2030 and the story develops
from her view to experience a brand-new day in her community with her 2 boys.
