Pixel Patrol is an immersive three-screen interactive experience that plays like a moral simulation game.
Participants step into the role of a moderator on a fictional social platform, making real-time decisions to purge, flag, or dismiss digital content.
Each action subtly reshapes the virtual environment, revealing how algorithmic systems mirror human bias, empathy, and control.
Blending cinematic storytelling with game-like mechanics, Pixel Patrol turns moderation into play—an experience of reflection rather than competition.
It exposes the invisible emotional labor behind digital governance and reframes sustainability as a question of ethics, not efficiency.
By drawing parallels between moderating information and curating nature, the work invites audiences to reconsider how design mediates power and care in technologically driven societies.
