About Eco Expo Korea Poster

Ang Eco Expo Korea ay isang disenyo ng poster at web interactive tungkol sa desertipikasyon ng pagkain. Ang poster ay ginawa sa A0 na sukat at may sukat na 1189 by 841 milimetro. Maraming pixel layer ang lumalabas at nawawala sa ibabaw ng mga larawan ng halaman, na sumisira sa mga ito o nagbabago sa kanila tungo sa mga bagong anyo. Tinatakpan ng bawat layer ang naunang layer sa pamamagitan ng pagbabago ng ratio nito. Ang epekto ay tumutukoy sa isang 404 error at ipinapakita ang agwat sa pagitan ng orihinal na halaman at isang artipisyal na piniling bagong konsepto. Layunin ng disenyong ito na itaas ang kamalayan tungkol sa mga species ng halaman na unti-unting nawawala.

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.
