The BUREAU of CHANGE Public Records division creates, acquires, and discloses public records in order to enhance communities’ knowledge and understanding of their social and political institutions.

 *EDUCATION NOT GUARANTEED

Our animated public record exposes internal mechanisms of how an institution can impose educational fraud and malfeasance on colleges students in the burgeoning crisis of higher education.

Our forensic investigation addresses the question: How aligned with the Assad regime’s message must the news be to pass censors in Syria? And how aligned with Youtube censors must a major Syrian news company be to avoid having its account deleted?

 
 NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH

Our interactive information experiment discovered personal and collective truths as defined by the individuals using our proprietary methodology in which observed participants decipher “truths” presented to the community as public knowledge, or create their own.

 
 #BUREAUofCHANGE

Our continuing project sets out a digital and physical marker to be used by the governed to identify, tag and communicate creative actions we find around the world and the web to solve public problems.
