Asia Album: Multimedia installation "Dandelion" connects Singapore, Japan through virtual flowers
During the COVID-19 outbreak, international borders are closed to the majority of travellers and traveling abroad has become much more difficult, but a new multimedia installation can connect people in Singapore and Japan.
The installation, called "Dandelion", is an two-meter-tall sculpture that allows people in Singapore and Japan to interact with each other via virtual dandelion fluffs.
When someone in Singapore scan a QR code and point his or her mobile phone to "blow" at the dandelion of the installation, dandelion fluffs will travel virtually to Dandelion installations in Japan and bloom into peonies there. Correspondingly, dandelion fluffs from Japan will bloom into sakuras in Singapore when someone in Japan "blows" at the Dandelion installation there.
The installation will be simultaneously exhibited in the two countries till Nov. 15.
