When one touches the surface of a wall, moving his hands freely, he leaves behind a trail. Although invisible by itself, through time, trails left by different people accumulate and leave behind signs. Then, people who arrive subsequently recognize and touch the same surface, realizing a connection between them and the predecessors that travels through time.

︎ ABSTRACT FORMS
In this project, we aim to explore the ephemeral connections that individuals feel when interacting with the same wall. Building upon the foundational experience, we want to delve into the sensations and emotions evoked in people who have engaged with the wall.
︎ ABSTRACT FORMS
The overall interaction will revolve around the concept of "different times, same location, and how individuals create connections through traces left by previous individuals on the wall.
To enhance the sense of connection among different users, we have designed two different modes for the interactive experience.
︎ IDLE MODE_Storytelling
The rectangular module will display the following information for a specific time period:
*Interaction time
*Total number of interactions
*Total traces created
The camera perspective will transition to a deep-level time matrix.In this interface, the goal is to help users better understand the concepts of time and space within the experience.
After the camera rotates 360 degrees within the 3D time matrix, it willrandomly enter one of the rectangular modules to display the hidden information.
All traces carried by the wall module within a certain period of time will be displayed to the user in a scrolling format.
︎ INTERACTIVE MODE
In the interactive mode, the user can create random square traces on the wall by waving their hands.
In the top left corner of each trace, the specific time when the trace was made will be displayed. The traces will also be recorded in the system. When subsequent individuals enter the space, they can establish connections and resonate with the traces left by previous users on the wall.

After the experience, users can follow the guidance on the screen to enter the store ![]()
