Our proposed initiative, The Developing Digital "Interest in Awesome!", aims to digitally transform and reimagine public spaces within Pontiac's natural installations and Reroot Pontiac's existing projects. By leveraging the potential of art, technology, and marketing, we aim to repurpose and reactivate these underutilized spaces for communal interaction and learning.

Through digital mediums, we will create an immersive, accessible simulation of these spaces. Community members and worldwide audience can virtually tour and interact with our natural installations, providing a unique opportunity to appreciate the potential of these underutilized spaces without physical limitations.

This project takes a placekeeping approach by digitally preserving and showcasing the ecological and cultural significance of Reroot Pontiac's efforts. Our storyboards, visual prototypes, and digital designs will encapsulate the essence of Pontiac's natural surroundings and our commitment to sustainable practices.

In addition, we plan to organize a series of virtual events and interactive sessions that invite community and government leaders to explore and reimagine the possibilities of these public spaces. Through these events, we will foster dialogue on sustainable adaptive reuse of public spaces, enhancing community connectivity and access to natural areas.

To address transit inequities, we will feature mobility prototypes in our digital simulations, such as bike shares and carpools, showing how they can be integrated into our community. This way, we bring attention to potential solutions for first/last mile transit issues.

Overall, this initiative connects digital technology with community engagement, reimagining our public spaces and infrastructure while promoting equitable access and environmental stewardship. Through this project, we hope to catalyze a radical reimagination of public infrastructure and spaces in Pontiac.
