Overview

About this game

Where We Echo is a meditative screensaver and interactive art piece about fishing for meaning.

Catch echoes of strangers’ lives left behind by 100+ people who visited before you. Release your own story into the pool, anonymously. Discover how we’re all shaped by moments of connection and hope, and maybe feel a little less alone.

You are a fisher at a liminal pool near the edge of the sky,
where echoes of human stories fall from the sky, unheard.

Catch and witness these echoes of humanity.

Release them back into the pool for others to discover.

Here, fishing is an act of empathy.

Screensaver integration is available on Windows only.

This project is built around real stories from real (but anonymous) people.

It proposes a different type of social online space: one that encourages us to seek out who each other really are again through our personal stories, making empathy, vulnerability, and personal reflection a daily habit.

Thank you to everyone who took the time to share and allowed your stories to be a part of this project! 💛
