Connected Flower 2018/02/09




Natural flowers bloom,
drawing water from the ground,
Robot Flower blooms watered by people’s minds.
It moves beautifully and glows softly,
nurtured through social media and
gathers affectionate words such as
love & peace from around the world.
This is a futuristic project that will connect
the hearts of people and fill the world with love.

WORLD IS FULL OF LOVE !
Do you think there is no love in this world?
Each tweet has a real life of people all over the world.
There is love in real life, not ideological love.
The key words of Love & Peace are drawn as one big beautiful flower by the collection of particles.Under the common values of human beings of love and peace, it represents the ideal vision of “human beings can be integrated beyond discrimination”.
It is not just technology for technology.
