The Light in the Forest App is being developed and piloted at Acadia university with the help of professor Jamie Symonds and computer science students Shelby Pink, Errol DaRocha and app developer Andrew Burke.
The intention of the app is to provide a simple calming interface consisting of interactive animations of Holly's original art, forest sounds and music. The second important function will be a way-finding feature (geo location) that will allow students quick access to on campus mental wellness support. These "supports" may be as immediate as emergency mental health services or a list of hiking trails, fitness classes etc.
The plan is to launch the App to Acadia university students in the fall of 2022.
