About this Project:

Hello, I am Mill and I worked with Justin, Dominic, Kevin and Josh to create this app called Seed(folks). Introducing Seed(folks), an innovative app merging the power of storytelling with the beauty of nature. Picture this: for every heartfelt story shared on our platform, we sow seeds in designated community gardens and parks. Each seed represents a unique narrative, embedded with a QR code that allows visitors to listen to the personal tale it symbolizes. Our mission? To foster connection, empathy, and unity across borders, one story and one bloom at a time. Imagine a world where voices from Denmark resonate in the streets of Brooklyn, where strangers become linked through shared experiences and flourishing gardens. Join us in cultivating a global tapestry of stories, where every seed planted nurtures both the earth and the human spirit.

More About this Project

What sets Seed(folks) apart is its powerful fusion of storytelling and environmental impact. Unlike other platforms, we don't just share stories; we bring them to life in vibrant community spaces through the growth of living symbols—the flowers. Each seed planted represents a personal narrative, creating a tangible connection between storytellers and listeners. Moreover, our innovative use of QR codes allows anyone to access these stories directly from the very plants they helped cultivate. By seamlessly blending technology, storytelling, and nature, Seed(folks) offers a unique and immersive experience that fosters empathy, connection, and global unity.

Feedback from the Judges:

👏 Supply Chain Advisor at Dell — Emoti-Con Judge
I really admire the creativity surrounding this project, but would have liked to see more of the story behind why you think this is necessary!

👏 IT Infrastructure Support at ArcherPoint — Emoti-Con Judge
It's an interesting concept. Everyone has a story to tell. Hearing stories from people of different backgrounds, ethnicities, and cultures can foster understanding, tolerance, and compassion—something that I think is lacking today in many places. My only feedback is to think about privacy. You want those stories to be heard and shared and not used as ammunition to dox someone.
