Fake news has been a topical issue that has garnered a lot of press attention in the last five years. The Reaction Spot/ Real Reaction is a self-directed project to engage younger people with news and highlight the issue of fake news. The Reaction Spot app; an app where young adults can react and engage with news stories and other viewpoints using icons to relate to different types of fake news. I designed ‘Real Reaction’, a limited print newspaper to go alongside the app. It runs stories around the topic of fake news and is heavily image-based with augmented reality interactions.
