One of the most meaningful projects I’ve worked on and it’s LIVE -

Meet Ayaguta, an Indigenous AI guide preserving endangered Inuktitut knowledge through community-controlled technology. With Rive, I brought Ayaguta to life with State Machines & Listeners to drive the complex conversation flow (Idle → Listen → Think → Speak) and Bone Rigging for movement.

🌿 Core Bindings: • emotionalIntensity: Context-true expressions • eyeTracking X/Y: Natural gaze Coming soon: • conversationMode: Idle → Listen → Think → Speak • storyDepth: Traditions revealed through trust

🏔️ Deployment: A responsive web platform and museum kiosks (Smart TV).
