10.000 moving cities - same but different - FILE São Paulo

FILE, São Paulo

Bubbling Universes - FILE SÃO PAULO 2017
“10.000 Moving Cities – Same but Different VR” deals with urbanization and globalization in the digital age. The user moves through visual worlds posted publicly by others on social networks such as YouTube, Flickr, Freesound or Twitter. Here these personal impressions are streamed in real time like windows to our changing world.
The viewer participates in the social movements of our time and makes a virtual journey into constantly new image and sound collages in which one experiences local, cultural and linguistic differences and similarities. In virtual space, this information is visualized on cubes that rise at different heights to become an abstract urban environment. The work deals with how our cities are continuously changing and increasingly resemble one. This results in more and more nonplaces/ places of lost places in the sense of Marc Augé’s book and essay Non-Places, which could exist all over the world without any true local identity (mostly anonymous transition zones such as motorways, hotel rooms or airports).
