Open the Walk and the Watch
FINALLIST
WORLD EXPOS
The development of technology has changed the way people watch, and making remote watching possible.Nowadays, the physical boundary in the traditional sense is slowly becoming blurred or even disappearing. Instead, it is a virtual boundary, which is hard to be felt.When people begin to build closer connections, the invisible borders make the distance between people and the distance between man and nature even bigger.In ancient times, people connected with nature, and relying on stars, mountains and rivers to walk. Now, the Internet has replaced nature, and becomes our new “star”, “mountain” and “river”.The question is, how do we use new technologies to redefine boundaries, and create new sense of direction in physical and virtual spaces.China's changes are huge, but the endless social problems also reflect the Chinese people's own confusion. Such as the pressure and loss brought about by the speed changes in the urban environment, the impact of politics on life cannot be realized, and network firewalls and censorship restrictions on human thinking......I hope that through this visually invisible building, witch will show such confusion, explain the transfer of physical boundaries to virtual boundaries, and give people something to think about......
