Richison began the collaboration with Patrick Murray, director of the Polling Institute, in early 2019 exploring joint opportunities during 2020 election cycle, following an earlier voter visualization project that Richison developed during the 2016 election. Richison\u2019s 2020 project will include an interactive installation of voting booths that will combine music, news footage, and politics. The social media infographics are an outgrowth of this larger project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The dotCOMM Awards is an international competition honoring excellence in web creativity and digital communication and has received over 200,000 entries since 1994.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
