We all live inside stories with imagined landscapes layered upon the real. The objects we own, use, and fantasize about make up and communicate who we are; property, too is a place where fiction steps in. By choosing the objects to own and desire, we create fictional worlds to live in, and expand our identities into countless new contexts. "Property fiction" has the power to unfurl and anchor us in the realm of imagination where we escape and dream, offering a place to exist beyond day-to-day life. I aspire to bring the intersection of kinetics and my love for storytelling to a material conception.

* UT-0314: Zipline Maneuvering Apparatus
Digital renderings and drawings
The apparatus can fire bullets that break apart into minute shrapnel shells that securely hold on to the body of walls or trees.

By combining the apparatuses on each arm, the user can swing from building to building, maneuvering quickly in the air.
