## Description

LIGHTSHED is a storytelling and technology platform focused on using immersive experiences to inspire positive social change. Led by Gabo Arora and managed by Barry Pousman, it collaborates with individuals, organizations, and companies to bring underrepresented perspectives and urgent social issues to audiences through virtual reality, augmented reality, artificial intelligence, and other emerging technologies. Its work explores subjects including inequality, displacement, conflict, historical memory, relationships, and global peace, with the aim of building empathy and encouraging meaningful action.

LIGHTSHED creates films, interactive experiences, exhibitions, and installations, including virtual reality documentaries, mixed-reality projects, and AI-powered encounters. Its projects include These Sleepless Nights, which presents personal stories from America’s eviction crisis, and The State of Global Peace, an interactive documentary about worldwide challenges. The organization also develops training and learning programs. Whose Future? combines community-based spaces with LightSchool, a virtual platform where students can connect, collaborate, and create. Through courses and facilitator-led programs, LIGHTSHED helps learners of different ages and backgrounds access tools for creating in the metaverse and telling stories with emerging technologies.
