With the COVID-19 pandemic likely lasting into the summer, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said that social distancing measures will be in place until at least May 15. This means that both students and most workers will continue to work from home until further notice. Now that we had some time to settle into our new routines, I want to get a glimpse into how people transformed their homes into workspaces. I’m interested in getting hopefully 5-6 people to give me a brief tour of their desks, their home offices, or even their couch if that’s the place where they do all of their work from. In addition, I would want to get people’s opinions about the challenges they’ve faced while working from home, especially students who have both their classes and their jobs online now (like me!) and how they adapted to those challenges. I expect that my interviewees would have to film their workspaces themselves, but I will work hard to make transitions from one person to another seamless, as well as incorporate my own experiences into the video if I can.
