Prof. Ricardo Miranda’s desktop and VR work FinTech for the Precariat will have a European premiere as part of Digital Art Zurich 2022 Festival, October 20-30.
FinTech for the Precariat is wandering world application set in a Manhattan-like cityscape populated by Greed, Lust, Gluttony, Envy, gig workers and 12 voices from New York City’s financial spectrum. The user wanders about the environment to encounter the creatures that live in it and the financial perspectives and realities of individuals – from financial brokers to recent college grads to computer programmers and cultural workers.
