Harmeet Chagger-Khan
Surfing Light Beams
If you had just one story to tell in this grand theatre of life, what would it be & how would you shape it? Harmeet is fascinated by how stories, games and experiences can unlock the Renaissance qualities within all of us.
Harmeet Chagger-Khan is an artist, creative producer and filmmaker who is currently a BOM (Birmingham Open Media) Fellow exploring how new technology, locative storytelling, immersive media (VR & AR) and theatre can create antidotes to life.
Over the last 12 years Harmeet has facilitated and produced projects with a diverse range of individuals to harness their polymathic qualities and create subtle behaviour change within communities, organisations and cities. And has undertaken research at the Futurelab at Ars Electronica, worked as Digital Strategist at M&C Saatchi and with organisations including Sampad, RSA, Southbank Centre, THSH, Creative Partnerships, CAST and Saudi Aramco.
Current projects in development are: Elixir of Life - an augmented reality game played on the city's streets where players go on a quest for immortality and inadvertently unlock their own potential; & Thank You For Shopping At Woolworths a VR film based around tribes, families and Christmas dinner.
