Bobcat Tales

Connecting physical environment with virtual space through co-creation at the university campus (ongoing)

Bobcat Tales is a digital placemaking project that connects the physical environment and virtual space through co-creation at the Texas State University campus.  It is to collectively reimagine and reinvent public spaces at the university campus to strengthening connection, maximize shared value, promote the history and culture of the campus. The digital placemaking creates a concept of hybrid space — digitally-enabled services, products, and experiences into built and natural environments, enhancing or even transforming the way the campus is understood. Content is tailored specifically to the location, helping make public spaces more meaningful and attractive, in turn optimizing we experience them.

NOTE: The project was on hold during the pandemic. It plans to resume in the fall of 2021.
