About Eco Expo Korea Postontzia

Eco Expo Korea kartel bat eta web diseinu interaktibo bat da, elikagaien basamortutzeari buruzkoa. Kartela A0 tamainan ekoitzi da, eta 1189 bider 841 milimetro neurtzen ditu. Pixel-geruza ugari agertu eta desagertzen dira landareen irudien gainean, hondatuz edo forma berrietan bihurtuz. Geruza bakoitzak aurrekoa estaltzen du bere proportzioa aldatuz. Efektuak 404 errore bati egiten dio erreferentzia, eta jatorrizko landarearen eta artifizialki hautatutako kontzeptu berri baten arteko aldea erakusten du. Diseinuak desagertzen ari diren landare espezieei buruzko kontzientziazioa areagotzea du helburu.

The Recognition

About the Brontzezko Saria A' Design Award

Eco Expo Korea Postontzia Brontzezko Saria A' Design Award irabazlea da, sormenak, asmamenak eta zorroztasunak bereizten dituzten diseinu bikainei ematen zaien aitorpen oso prestijiotsua. Brontze-mailako irabazleak trebetasunez beteriko eta nabarmenki sortzaileak diren artefaktuak dira, beren diseinatzaileen esperientzia zabala, irudimena eta ekimena egiaztatzen dutenak. Eco Expo Korea Postontzia oso estimatua, miretsia eta maitea den objektua izatea espero da, nabarmenki profesionala eta berritzailea dena. Brontzezko Saria A' Design Award irabazi duen diseinu honek artearen, zientziaren, diseinuaren eta teknologiaren praktika onenak biltzen ditu eta xehetasunei ematen dien arretagatik bikaina da. Eco Expo Korea Postontzia beharrak bikain asetzen dituen, desirak ukitzen dituen, sentimenduak xarmatzen dituen eta jakin-mina erakartzen duen lana da.

Unique Properties: The graphic design '404 not found', displayed in 'Eco Expo' in 2019.
In the graphics, multiple pixel layers repeat their appearance and disappearance being damaged or transforming into new images. There are layers implying the concept of plants being artificially selected or vanishing away. The layer cover up the previous by cheaning its ratio. This represents the gap between the original plant and the artificially selected new concept as in the 404 error.
Dimensions & Packaging: It consists of poster and web interactive design. Poster has been created in the A0 size. It measures 1189mm x 841mm to be precise.

Design Challenge: We want to raise awareness about the current situation facing mankind through extreme settings in which the concept of food is newly established due to 404 errors.
Research: We investigated the raw materials (plants) of food that were disappearing.
Recognizing that there are fewer cases of encountering plant prototypes due to processed and fast food, the correlation was quantified and graphically made.
Due to excessive plant species improvement, aquaculture-type indoor cultivation, and industrialization, this situation, in which humans and plants become increasingly distant, contact points disappear, and forget what the raw materials are, was set up as the term "artificial selection of plant concepts" and applied to the design.
Inspiration: The earth faces the problem of 'Food Desertification' with the development of industrialization and processed food. The rapid decline in the number of plants, which are the raw materials for many foods, and genetically modified cultivation introduced a new generation of mankind who knows tomato ketchup but not the tomatoes. The 404 not found graphic shows how such food desertification deforms the original concept of plants and creates a new concept artificially selected.
Project Duration: The project was displayed at COEX Hall in Gangnam, Seoul, from October 13 to November 10, 2019.
Operation Flow: As multiple pixel layers cover the top and bottom of the object, it changes with the pollution level of the environment, the scale of industrialization, and the number of people in the current plant species. When all layers are full, they turn red.
Objects, which are hidden in layers and are increasingly invisible, tell us the progress of food desertification, and can graphically derive the progress of desertification of food that you have searched through the website.
