NYC+vs.+NYC


 * Project Name:** NYC vs. NYC


 * Project Credits:** Cooper Smith

The brief for Jill Nussbaum's Design in Public Spaces class asked us to "create a networked, mobile, or interactive installation that uses sport tracking data to improve the experience of either biking, running, or walking in NYC. Consider how athletic data might be used to create awareness for athletes that share the city streets, affect transportation policy, and improve overall city health."Our solution was "New York vs New York", a competition that makes teammates of neighbors, and opponents out of neighborhoods. Participants join their team to conquer as much of New York as possible in Risk-inspired gameplay. Using GPS tracking such as Nike+, participants claim territory by running through the city, taking over unclaimed streets and stealing streets from opponents by running with friends. The final deliverable was a user journey, which helps explain the experience from one participant's perspective.
