Cate Mok is a junior studying Architecture and Computer Science with a specialization in immersive design. Her research, design, and writing focuses on immersive experiences and spaces, architectural pedagogy, and experimental narrative forms. Drawing from a background in creative writing and installation art, her work seeks to facilitate human connection and conversation in an increasingly digital world. In her residency, she is exploring what it means to embody and spatialize long distance love and emotional intimacy through interactive furniture and exercises. How can we design spaces and choreographies to miss someone? How can immersive technologies be used to cultivate architectural and digital circuitries for love and grief and warp narrative space and time?
