Using WebGL, we designed an immersive experience intended to make users lose their sense of time and space. The 3-D spiral conveys how disorienting the stories are and how easily the subjects fall into chaos.

To reorient the reader, we provided color coding to identify the stories of the two main characters.

We integrated the illustrations of artist Jun Cen into the feature, providing a much more relatable, human feel, and helping the reader identify more closely with both protagonists.

Striking the right balance between descriptive and abstract, Cen’s work masterfully captured the complexity of these characters and their isolation.
