For #Niantic’s #Lightship #RealWorldARChallenge, I led a team to build an MVP of “Low Carbon Labs,” an #AR ed game. Players must build carbon capture systems to lower the CO2 level in their environment. With #ChristopherMaxey, #XioahanWu, #MollyCarroll.

Delighted to be interviewed for #BoldJourney this past month. We dive into the qualities that have kept me going as a creative, my work across the performing arts, #XR, and higher ed, and how a teacher taught me to see the world in profound ways. boldjourney.com/news/meet-jo…

If you’re lucky, your students will tell you how much they learned in your class. If you’re really lucky they’ll tell the press about it. arhu.umd.edu/news/david-obaj… @umd_imd #DavidObajemu #XR #AR #highered

Just published this Medium article about my experience teaching augmented reality design over the past few years. Hope it will be a conversation starter for anyone creating experiential works of AR or interested in training new talent for the medium. medium.com/@jondavidmartin/t…

My students @umd_imd are using Snapchat's Lens Studio to build AR experiences this summer. So I thought I would check it out and build a special lens for fans of the Broadway production of LIFE OF PI (I'm a puppeteer in the production).

Check out this excellent segment on #lifeofpibway. Being inside of the show, I forget how unique it is as a piece of theater and kinetic storytelling. A huge thank you to @Mistahwax and the whole @cbssaturday team for highlighting the magic and hardwork behind the puppetry.

"Life of Pi" - first a hit novel, and then an Oscar-winning movie - is a story unlike any other. Now, with state-of-the-art puppetry and stagecraft, that story is on Broadway. @Mistahwax goes behind the scenes.

Some really awesome footage from our press day at #LifeofPiBway. We demoed how we created the choreography for this sequence by layering on elements one at a time. With #HiranAbeysekera as Pi #BetsyRosen and #NikkiCalonge with me as the tiger.
