Pinsight

Pinsight

Pinsight (lead by Dr. Can Liu) was a series of Internet-enabled interactive tangible location pins placed in the world (notably various locations around London and Cambridge in the UK) and used to share content about the area created by and for locals.

I created a social media one-page website for broadcasting the work; it’s now offline, but the official project page is still here.
