Ever since the pandemic has started, I haven’t got much chance to go out and meet with my friends yet, neither have I went back to Shanghai (and possibly won’t until next year). So, I created “ROOM WITH A VIEW” – a sharing tool for people to share the views from their windows (or from any other places people would like to share) with their friends and families in virtual apartment cells.
Each user gets assigned to an apartment cell with their local time and time zone displayed at the sides of the room. Users can share their live stream videos via this pixelated window to others. The wall colors of the rooms are mapped to the local time zones of each user. Besides from the live stream, users could also move around the touch screen to animate the clouds ☁️
