Hindsight Guestbook
with Lan Zhang & Zihao Chen



Excerpt of the Guestbook, a living record of site activity.

In the Spring of 2020, gallery spaces across the world were closed, classes finished online, and our MFA thesis festival– once meant to be a physical show– went completely virtual.

As part of our online exhibition (Hindsight 2020), we created Hindsight Guestbook: a procedural story of togetherness built inside the intesely digital show.

Every visitor to the festival website leaves anonymous data footprints. We use these footprints to build a story: one of people coming together from distant locations to share in learning, design, and art-making.

Anna Garbier contributed as concept design lead, and frontend development.
