Los dispositivos digitales nos pueden ayudar a poder ver cosas que son invisibles para el ojo humano.

Gracias a metamike encontré este video de un fascinante proyecto en Tachikawa (cerca de Tokyo) de qosmo y teradadesign: el n-building.

Se trata de un complejo de oficinas y comercios que han hecho “transparente” mediante un gigantesco código QR que cubre todo su exterior. Con una aplicación y el iphone se puede captar la información de las personas en el interior, p.ej. sus mensajes en twitter aparecen en bocadillos al lado de ellas (si anteriormente han querido permitir este segumiento).

Además se puede descargar cupones de descuentos y encontrar más información sobre los comercios asociados.

En navidad incluso aparecía un abeto encimo del techo en el display del iphone!

La tecnología no deja de emocionarnos.

Welcome to the future!

“N Building is a commercial structure located near Tachikawa station amidst a shopping district. Being a commercial building signs or billboards are typically attached to its facade which we feel undermines the structures’ identity. As a solution we thought to use a QR Code as the facade itself. By reading the QR Code with your mobile device you will be taken to a site which includes up to date shop information. In this manner we envision a cityscape unhindered by ubiquitous signage and also an improvement to the quality and accuracy of the information itself.

December 15th, 2009 we held an opening which included the limited release of an iPhone application made specifically for N Building. If a QR Code is static, what could we do with a dynamic device like the iPhone? Our proposed vision of the future is one where the facade of the building disappears, showing those inside who want to be seen. As you press on the characters their comments made on online appear in speech bubbles. You can also browse shop information, make reservations and download coupons. Rather than broadly tagging, we display information specific to the building in a manner in which the virtual (iPhone) serves to enhance the physical (N Building). Our goal is to provide an incentive to visit the space and a virtual connection to space without necessarily being present.”
