Karen’s original emotionally responsive film, RIOT, which uses facial recognition and A.I. technology to navigate the viewer through a dangerous riot. If the viewer is confronted by a riot cop, and they respond with fear, the film goes in one direction and if the viewer responds with anger and it goes in another. RIOT makes the viewer aware of their subconscious behaviour and enables them to consciously build new neurological pathways in their brain. The RIOT prototype was honoured as part of the Digital Dozen Break Throughs in Storytelling 2016, Columbia DSL acknowledged the most innovative approaches to Narrative in the world in the industries of art, entertainment, journalism, and marketing.
