The project is based on the internet experience. People are moving from the reality to the virtual reality, where time and space in internet world has no longer be linear and 3-dimensional. Internet allows us to have multiple entry points and perspectives. But at the same time the vagueness of this space also deneies personal identities which people are directed by a mass unconsciousness.
This video project is to demonstrate the mass shifting from the reality, to the world of representations, through devices like bus stop (symbolize a sense of "travel"), advertisement(an example of representation and generalization of individual qualities) and the unrognisable crossing people.
