Visual novel I worked on with some classmates. You follow Aretta as you discover clues and sleuth around her company in the after hour period. Figure out just what your boss and his accomplices are up to. They say knowledge is power, but what will you do with the information you acquire?
The story follows office worker Arreta as she navigates the tricky path of whistleblowing. She must choose whether to expose an large ploy that will harm others, or promote herself.
What will you have Arreta do?
Consists of components of several VR projects I made using javascript and field in a VR production course. The capstone project combined three of my passions in computer-generated music, colorful and algorithmic 3D art, and electrical muscle stimulation to make a visualizer in VR in which touching the virtual “knobs” would elicit electrical shocks to the arms. This mulitsensory experience allows users to experience the digital facilitation of visual, auditory, and tactile senses simultaneously in a non-conventional manner.
I performed a series of tests and analyses of neural data in mice using the Allen Institute Brain Observatory and Software Development Kit. Culminated in a research poster that I presented.
I worked under Dr. Daniel Millman following his research (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33108272) and Dr. Saskia de Vries at the Allen Institute.
