Twin passageways:
One passageway houses a fake capsule hotel environment with live signal generated from a built-in network of surveillance cameras. The other passage-way houses a shell for the display of remote signal streamed from a real capsule hotel surveillance system in Japan.
Capsule hotel
is a symbolic structure lodged in the global brain. The architecture inevitably points
to a discussion of the modular human, the "salaryman" stored efficiently overnite
and delivered for work the next day. The capsule
location becomes the site for musing on the subject of doubling/mirroring/twinning,
as the twin passageways become a performative space to explore a relationship
between the one capsule location and its fake double.
