The "Transborder ImmigrationTool" response by Ruben Rubio

1. CONTEXT: Electronic Disturbance Theater’s (EDT), “Trans border Immigration Tool (TIT)” project disturbs the cyber world and makes government agencies like the FBI investigate EDT’s “artivism” projects that speak for social groups from immigrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border to high tuition costs for college students.

2. CONTENT: EDT’s “TIT” project has an issue with immigration politics.

3: FORM: EDT used technology and the internet as the medium to address immigration politics.

4. STAKEHOLDERS: EDT’s co-founders Ricardo Dominguez and Brett Stalbaum, the FBI, UCSD, Republicans, and immigrants are the stakeholders in the “TIT” project.

5. AUDIENCE: The “TIT” project was conceived for immigrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border and anyone who is pro-immigration politics? 

6. ENGAGEMENT STRATEGIES: Technology was used to lead immigrants to water caches while crossing the US-Mexico border, which angered people against illegal border crossing.

7. GOAL: EDT’s goal is to disturb the minds of those opposed to illegal border crossing by providing basic necessities to immigrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border. 

8. VALUES: EDT appears to believe that anyone crossing the U.S.-Mexico border deserves water to navigate through the rough terrain of the Southern California desert and an opportunity to start a new life in a new country.  EDT provided mobile technology that led immigrants to water cache locations and poetry to ease the process in crossing the border.

9. RESOURCES: EDT used art based research money provided by UCSD to fund “TIT,” because Ricardo Dominguez was a tenured professor at UCSD.

10: OUTCOMES: The results of the “TIT” project were investigations by government agencies, politicians and institutions.  EDT also got the opportunity to show their political stance on immigration.
