Carolyn Talks 'East of The Rockies' With Author Joy Kogawa

We always say to make the future better we have to learn for our past, and award winning Joy Kogawa has that same hope with East of The Rockies, a new narrative Augmented Reality (AR) interactive story created by Jam3, and based on Kogawa's experience at the Slocan interment camp in British Colombia, where she, her family and thousands of other Japanese-Canadian citizens were held during WWII.

During the media day and experimental pop-up hosted by the Toronto Reel Asian International Film Festival (October 31, 2019), Carolyn had the opportunity to briefly speak with Kogawa about what it was like using AR to tell her story, how history seems to be repeating itself in politics and the potential impact of East of The Rockies.
