3. WHAT:
An interactive game that will
make people experience the
environment around them.
With a background in
architecture and urban
planning, I feel an urge to
use and play with real
space, and I would like it to
reflect in my game
principles.

4. WHY:
I feel that people are usually so immersed in their
thoughts and problems, that they cannot enjoy or absorb
what is happening right in front their eyes. If you look
well, you will notice that there’s always something
interesting happening around you.

5. FIRST PROPOSAL:
At the beginning, I wanted to create something
like a Kindness Campaign, and spread notes and
postcards with supporting and nice quotes, and
track where those postcards would go. Hopefully
build a network through it and be able to create
interventions in the city with these people.
... but it was still to shallow

14. HOW DOES IT WORK:
1) Spread objects in specific places that are meaningful to
you in some way and explain why. In the website there
will be a list of those objects and the descriptions.
2) If you find one of those objects, you may just take
them and leave them in other place that is special or
interesting to you, and explain why.
3) Each object will come with a QRcode, so once you
find them, or replace, you should scan it and you will
redirected to the website, where you can give another
life for your object.

15. GOAL:
1) Create a map of places related by meaningfulness
rather than geography, and that can be in constantly
transformation.
