The Realm of Possibilities Imagine the possibilities that an application like this could hold for schools and museums. This could easily be a travelling installation for schools in order to better educate and immerse kids and adults alike into agriculture and give them a glimpse into what it means and the significance it holds. The beautiful part of this project’s potential application is the diversity. For the Milan installation, the designers focused on their home base of Tokyo, but for educational purposes, this project could mold itself and take on the agricultural background of whatever region it is in. Digital Waterfalls The next part of the installation is named “diversity”. Visitors approach and interact with a remarkable technological waterfall. The waterfall feature, alive with vibrant blue color, spans 360 degrees and delivers image upon image of Japanese foods down the waterfall and into a pool area where they float over to visitors. Once you find an image that interests you, simply touch it and information about that food’s history and significance will appear and become downloadable to your mobile device.
