We have a undefined story of 2065.
able, touchable. Actually, it‘s not exist in the real world?
The physical world will still be there, but it won‘t change too much. Architecture has become extinct for the construction itself, as a conclusion of the over-supply developing data transformation and the global internet.
But almost no one needs the real world any more. Life is so easy thanks to the Rilao technique. We use data, we are satisfied by data, we‘re crazy of data. We are DATA!
We‘ll stopped to build or create real things, because the super Internet data analysis system Rilao makes al the things in our mind visible, feel
It‘s not the faraway future, it‘s the post-past.

A long, long time ago…
this bill and the prepare process will be finish by the year 2067.
2013 – RILAO is developed as a system to make sense of the ever-expanding, always-unorganized data generated and in turn bombarding the citizens of earth.
2065 – American government become the first country practice The Purge, in the process you updating your Rilao, some of the people will be delete by the government, but all of this is decorated as an ad to update your gene sequence.
2025 – RILAO is given its own intelligence, with the three laws of robotics as its core. It is able to start decision making to advance the human race to levels of technology and social philosophy never before seen. 2030 – RILAO begins its search for suitable worlds for human colonization
2065 – Almost all the countries start plan The Purge… 2066 – A group of resistance fighters cum hackers start an uprising and attempt to restore RILAO to its form glory by feeding it (and through association) the US government, false data, leading to their own downfall…and since now the plan MM completely failed…
2043 – Since RILAO created, in the past 30 years, there is no wars, no terrorisms, no criminals, everything is so beautiful. But there is also no creations, no handcrafts, and no designs.
2067 – A few people stop using Rilao, and go back to real life…
2048 – Rilao founds the planet Utopia M perfect for human beings…
2068 – The false data bugs the program of Rilao and during the restore by the hackers and fighters it changes the permissions of the system, all the “humans” in the three laws of robotics, are replaced by “the earth”.
2051 – Rilao develops the system that can resource data to physical object. 2059 – According to the feedback Analysis of Rilao, the sources of the earth will be used out by the year 2070, the report is cut down by the American government. 2060 – The leaders of all the countries attend the secret meeting of move to another planet Utopia M. It’s impossible for the techniques at that time to build a Noah’s Ark for all the human beings. No results from the meeting. 2062 – In the second meeting the Asian unit government make a proposal MM that it’s possible to transport mostly people to Utopia M by the Rilao data to physical system. And most countries pass
2068 – Some countries started to limit the overuse of Rilao by the public
2069 – Rilao itself stops to collect data. And tries to find out the solution for saving the earth by analysis… 2070 – Counting Results _Delete “type” human_ {data package} _Delete “type” human_ {world} _rebuild “type” mountain_ _rebuild “type” grass_ …… _self-destruct A long, long time ago… there is a beautiful planet in the universe called the earth…

World’s Largest 3D-Printed Architectural Pavilion
Natural structures are analyzed and understood as hierarchies of very simple components organized into constructs from the smallest arrangement of material, through successive subassemblies to the most complex – the whole organism or body. Properties and performances emerge that are Human occupancy, in particular proximity and time lapse, will be the parameters that will define multispectral requirements. These requirements transfer to the phenotype, described by softwarecontrolled parameters.
The basic aim of this project is to design a flexible dividable 3d-Printed structure as the customer require. And we also work on a system that will act as structure and fit the feature of the material at the same time. The development of these systems will originate from the definition of their simplest constituents integrating manufacturing constraints and assembly logic in parametric components.
The research processing includes experimentation and to know the feature of the material in order to build a stand able structure. We use silkworm, vault and many other parametric tools to help our design. This new combine knowledge will be applied in the design of structure system and unit. We set up a 2 week workshop during this process also to teach the basic knowledge of form founding and 3D-printing.
Consequently, the system also includes the development of parametric, by using this kind of new techniques we can get the feedback and improve data during the process.

In the Realms of the Unreal The Research and Design of the Language Campus for teenager immigration from China to Germany
THE BANANA CASE What is Banana case? The name of my project banana case comes from a typical Chinese joke. For a long time, we called the oversea Chinese banana. Though they have the same yellow skin as us, in order to adjust to the new society around them. They transform themselves similar to western people, white people. (The joke is rude, but tells directly the dilemma of immigration-Identity transition. I use this joke only to add the impression at the same time also as a symbol of my project. It’s nothing about discriminate or try to defined people by color :-) There is a magic invention from Japan used to keep the banana fresh called banana case. I used this as the title of my project, trying to design relax and comfortable cases for my young bananas in the realms of the unreal world for them.
Why Banana case? Immigration from developing countries to developed countries has already become the hotspot issue all over the world. In this indeterminate changing, I take the sample of teenager. In my opinion, they are the sample we should be consider about. According to the special language and society condition of Germany and based on the background of myself. I decide to design a Language Campus for the Chinese teenager immigration (10 to 18 years old).settle down in Germany.
How I build the banana case? I began with the research of two countries in completely different history process. The first overlap point I found was in medieval, both countries suffered from natural disasters and tried to escape from the reality by dreaming in new kinds of literature. In Europe, it presented by dream poetry. The master is Geoffrey Chaucer who is well known as the father of England literature. And in China it developed to dream opera. “Peony Pavilion” is one of the master piece of this period. I used a mater piece of literature „Peony pavilion “as the structure of my project. I abstracted my project to 4 separate exercises. They’re 1.Journey 2. Nightmare 3. Seek 4.Reproduce. I tried to present my idea and also my design in the dynamic process in order to prove the brief of our studio “On the Move”.

I chose the site in Kreuzburg, Berlin. And the location of the site is 13.44, 52.5, 13.46, 52.49 I’m familiar with this area. This part may be the most multi-culture area of Berlin. People of this area are really from all over the world. People here are friendly and for the other side as an area that becoming more and more popular but not yet. The cost of life here is still cheaper than other place. There are also a lot of international schools located here. In the buildings which I used to work in had the one of the most famous street painting--- Cuvry Brache. And I selected the block just in front of it as my design site. One really interesting thing happened during the process of my project. The
site used to be the shelter of the homeless guys before the government sold the site to a Muchen investment company. At the end of last year the police men and government officers came to clean up all the homeless because the company decided to put a really luxury high-rise shopping and residential building called “Cuvryhöfe” here, with the structure completely cover the famous painting. The only way for you to enjoy the “street painting” is to go in to the mall or you paid. The artist blu response by blacking the painting on the day 11th, Dec, 2014.
And he left the following message in his blog, “In a way, it is a ‘fuck you’ gesture towards the city ‘as a silent protest to the excessive modern consumption concept.

The Photograph does not call up the past (nothing Proustian in a photograph),” writes Barthes. “The effect it produces upon me is not to restore what has been abolished (by time, by distance) but to attest that what I see has indeed existed.” -Roland Barthes’ Camera Lucida: Absence as Presence

Other way of narrate by photos
I happened to read that it‘s already 300 years passed since china came from China to Europe. I‘m wondering what happened in Europe from the past 300 years, what s changed and what‘s kept.
I flop my mind to four areas: The history of china in Europe, Crazy thinker that hadn't been accept in his time age, The fashion capital
and the politic center. I research the first area as a timeline and the other 3 as time points. What's happen nowadays? What's already happened in the past? Did the history a loop? Are we repeat ourselves some how?
I tried to describe all of my mind movie with photos abstraction. I used nowadays time points cities photos to picture the old one and the old one to picture the newest.
