Rochester City Arts Lab
Rochester City Arts Lab (RCAL) is a participatory arts and technology initiative to collaboratively “rediscover” and further “unearth” histories of the city of Rochester via an innovative combination of art and technology in public space.
Art on the Edge in Rochester
Rochester City Arts Lab (RCAL) is a collaborative initiative at the intersection of art, technology, and civic engagement, dedicated to uncovering Rochester’s hidden or forgotten histories, amplifying community voices, and reimagining the city’s future through creative public interventions. Rooted in the belief that art and technology can serve as catalysts for social, economic and environmental justice, RCAL partners with residents, artists, historians, technologist and students to co-create site-specific and technologically-driven works that may serve as platforms for dialogue, memory, and possibility.

Rochester Augmented: Experiments in Augmented Reality and Locative Media
Rochester Augmented is a pioneering effort to blend augmented reality (AR), mobile technologies, and public art to create geo-located virtual installations, interventions and experiences—visually and sonically superimposed on the real world via smartphones—that celebrate and interrogate Rochester neighborhood narratives and character. Below are some early experiments done by students from the School of Interactive Games & Media at Rochester Institute of Technology.
