Rock Ulibarri

Story Experiences of Northern New Mexico was an interactive wooden shed constructed by Rock Ulibarri. The shed represented the responsibility of stacking firewood to prepare for winter in rural Northern New Mexico. The user was prompted by audio of a grandfather figure to stack firewood in the shed. In return, the shed responded by playing audio clips of Las Vegas student interviews. In order to hear all of the interviews, the user had to stack all of the firewood. The goal of this installation was to share the students' stories through experiences that they live every day.
