desert dream

AR storybook made with adobe aero
fall 2022

collaboration with Karina Chow & Alfonssette Medina


Desert Dream is an augmented reality (AR) interactive book, using AI-generated images to create interactive animations in two surreal desert landscapes.

We used Dall-E and Midjourney to create two surreal desert landscapes. The physical book was created with layers of laser cut paper and cardboard. Using the provided iPad with Adobe Aero, users can explore these fantastical landscapes in augmented reality and tap on the creatures to see animations.
