Carson Quarterly - High Tech, New Publication by Agency 36
On August 1st, a new publication called the Carson Quarterly (CQ) was delivered to the Carson City Convention and Visitor’s Bureau. The CQ is the first product presented by the new, downtown business, Agency 36.
Agency 36 specializes in cutting-edge augmented reality, interactive marketing and enhanced publications. Much of the technology that they use is new to Carson City but the owners/founders of Agency 36 are long-time residents. Jennifer Smith, Executive Experience Designer, grew up in Carson City, attended Carson High School and is also a freelance Graphic Designer. Dana Lee Fruend, Executive Marketing Director, is also the current Marketing Director for the Carson HorseShoe Club, freelance writer for Quick Throttle Magazine and Downtown 20/20 President.
The Carson Quarterly covers Carson City events and activities, food and drinks, travel and tourism, and arts and culture, showcasing the attributes of the capital city. In addition to its convenient purse or pocket sizing, the CQ is enhanced using augmented reality, a technology that brings print to life with the use of a smart device and a free app. When hovered over, the pages reveal animations, videos and click-able content links to offer readers an amazing, one-of-a-kind experience.
The CQ is the first of several projects in development at Agency 36. The company has also conceived the Carson City Experience or CCX, a huge, city-wide augmented reality spectacle that unites business, industry, art, culture, education and technology to make Carson City the World’s First Augmented Reality City. When the project is complete, the downtown corridor, historical sites and surrounding areas will come to life with augmented content. Agency 36 is working on the CCX in conjunction with Joel Dunn and the CCVB to help make Carson City a tourism hot spot.
The CQ is available at the Carson City Visitor’s Bureau and participating businesses or a digital copy can be viewed or downloaded. The October/November/December issue will be distributed on October 1st. For more information on participation as an advertiser or contributor to the CQ, send an email to info@agency36.com.
