Botanic Citizen Illusion

City Design | Video Installation | Storytelling

A tour of a decentralized city based on the plant system for the Emergent City project.

This is a hyperthree-dimensional space. The city works like a system of interconnected rhizomes in plants. Residents work among the blocks and constantly move through them. In the process, the identity of residents is constantly changing. Nothing is permanent here: identity, address, job, currency, relationships. Everything is fluid, but everything is connected.

We used the combination of image and physical paper to achieve a certain degree of interaction. When the viewer approaches the projection, the figure will cover a certain area of the projection. The city keywords behind the virtual image will appear.
