02Encounter

Experience

The live OnMove product homepage presenting location-based audio and visual storytelling

  • GPS

Authoring administration, multilingual content, media, beacons, publishing. Node backend, authenticated APIs, browser-first PWA delivery, offline caching, MQTT over WebSockets. The accomplishment is the chain, not a single frontend.

04Consequence

What changed

Applications became experiential infrastructure — connective tissue between participant, place and institution.
