Amplifier is a nonprofit design lab that builds art and media experiments to amplify the most important movements of our times. Our AR app helps transform the analog 2-D posters, stickers, and murals we are known for, into art that literally comes to life to deliver a call to action. Hearing messages straight from movement leaders exposes the heart of these issues we are working on, and reveals the deeper conversations that have always been just beneath the surface of our work.
