NYC PIT Pop Up
NYC PIT POP UP AT THE OCULUS
Tech. Justice. And What’s Next?
The NYC PIT Pop Up is a temporary, immersive, pop-up event where Public Interest Technology (PIT), art, science, and community converge. A storefront space in the South Concourse of the iconic Oculus World Trade Center has been transformed to be part gallery, part workshop, and part future commons. This shared space for co-creation and imagination showcases how technology can be designed to serve justice, equity, and community empowerment.
