→ P02 Data Point
With images as the origin of my research, I began to think about whether people are still at the center of image creation in the era of data and whether everything is still dominated by people. Firstly, we selected 65 natural scenery images taken in the past and put them into Taobao to realize the translation from images to "functional" items. Sixty-five images correspond to 65 items. This process is dominated by data, and the purchase of goods is no longer based on human needs. At the same time, 65 items also produce hundreds of items of packaging, which is today's data garbage. The creative process is divided into three steps: controllable images, observable objects, and uncontrollable data, which also correspond to the highlights with time: the highlights of people 1,2,3, 1,2,3 regularly lit up and irregularly lit up. The final design of the three books shows from small to large: from the index of images to objects, the elaboration of the experimental creation process, and the narrative reconstruction of images and objects. Eventually, human beings will enter the meaningless data world and enter the closed loop of data from which they cannot escape.
The highlights with time: 1,2,3, 1,2,3.
