"REMANUFACTURING CONGESTION" Yifei Zhang Portfolio B.Arch, Chang'an University(CN) MSc Architecture, Delft University of Technology(NL) Selected Works 2017 - 2021 zyfapplication@163.com | China: (+86) 18792927917 | the Netherlands: (+31) 613794789

The word 'congestion' comes from the culture of congestion mentioned by Rem Koolhaas in <Delirious New York>, which refers to an 'All in One' program, a systematic structure that integrates density, traffic, and cultural phenomena. Meanwhile, architecture is constantly absorbing new cultures and new technologies. I suggest the current congestion should be a broader meaning mixture, including environment, efficiency, sunlight, water, technology, in order to use new types and new systems to regulate, connect and adapt to the city.

In short, what I mean by Remanufacturing Congestion should be a state in progress, trying to reinterpret reality, using remanufacturing methods to combine distinct technologies and desires, and adapting various congestions as prototypes to suit to crowded cities or even escape from overcrowded cities as an architectural awareness.

PROLOGUE

'Remanufacturing Congestion' is an overview of my portfolio. Focusing on the environment, construction, details, and design as well as images, I deem that architecture should respond more sensitively to the impact of urbanization and new industries, and try to create a system of crowded culture, it might be remanufactured, or it might be the unique combination. Remanufacture, in a broad sense, is the process of rejuvenating old machinery and equipment. I choose to use the word 'Remanufacture' instead of 'recreating' or 'rebuilding' since 'Remanufacture' is a more subjective word, which means the design is an emotional element in the process. Moreover, I tend to consider architecture as a complex machine, so how to intervene in the old building to revitalize it, and how to put the new building in a state of mechanism that responds to the environment and society and people, and how to make the created overlapping or parallel spatial rules compatible with crowded content are where I concentrate.

At the same time, another meaning of congestion should be a more general kind of person and traffic——a state of congestion in the 'shoulder to shoulder', I prefer thinking of this part of congestion as another name for communication and interaction. Similarly, like rebuilding the Tower of Babel to create a space and collective experience, I hope that the architecture can accommodate more activities and emotions, and play an optimistic concept in the city to accept and transform the reality, full power.

The textile city witnessed the whole process of the industry from prosperity to decline in the last century, and the people, architecture, and environment there also withdrew from the historical stage. At the same time, the future seems to be no direction. Everyone involved in it has changed from their pride to inferiority.

The term 'community' in sociology was first introduced by Tönnies, a German classical sociologist, in his 'community and society.' Tönnies divides the community into three parts: consanguineous community, geo community, and spiritual community. From the beginning of social theory, the concept of community has been entwined with the variation of modernity and has been evolving. We try to use the system of 'community' to restore the broken city, environment, community, space and relationship between people in Textile City, breaking the original shackles, and let different areas and systems coordinate to form a new production and living system. What's more, it is necessary to cure the environment damaged by industrial production, reconstruct the relationship between people, retrieve the shared memory of the past, and let people here treat themselves as part of the region where they can find the sense of identity and regains "dignity."

Residence: transformed from National No.4 textile factoryDemolishing

There is an area transformed into the Banpo Art Center on the north side of No.3 Factory. Many artists live and work here, but due to the lack of popularity, there has been a lack of vitality, what's worse, the local textile industry transformation caused a large number of elderly and unemployed population. Besides, there are many Soviet aid buildings left by World War II around, which has become a significant feature here.

As a brilliant state-owned enterprise in the last century, the textile city was once known as the existence of "small Hong Kong" in Xi'an. Its two main components are the production area and residential area and their supporting facilities. At present, the production area has been abandoned, and the residential sector has lost the support of the production and the vitality as the past. The business form is almost left; in the meantime, with the development of the times, the infrastructure of the residential area gradually cannot meet the needs of the residents.

In the era of the planned economy, small city communities such as textile cities exist all over the country. However, with the advent of the market economy era, many small communities gradually open their barriers and start to exchange and interact with each other, sharing resources to pursue more significant interests. But at the same time, the traditional textile industry of the textile city was eliminated by the times, workers were laid off, and the young people had to go out of the textile town to seek opportunities in the outside world, resulting in the labor loss.

WEAVE——LINKING THE FRAGILE COMMUNITY

The building and its surroundings have been redesigned as a comprehensive hub connecting all kinds of people and functions, including sightseeing corridors and wetland parks. The whole system uses the means of "weaving" and the concept of community to connect the form, space, and three kinds of participants in the cultural and creative complex, namely, the relationship between residents, tourists, and artists. In terms of form, the straight sawtooth roof is deconstructed and transformed into a stripped roof, entrance canopy, a spiral ramp, and other structures. Each functional node of the building is inserted by a cone-shaped block, which not only breaks the low elevation of the plant but also plays a role in improving the building climate.

Besides, we have raised the height of the plant to maximize the economic effect of space and meet the living needs of enough people.

14To break the original curing form, we insert four cones to reconstruct the spatial order. Each cone-shaped space belongs to its central part, which integrates transportation and has different public properties, such as the museum, creative studio, lecture hall, CO governance landscape, spiral bookshelf, etc., to produce a good sense of space experience and participation. Similarly, as the hub of green technology, cone space complements the green-sustainable strategy of the new complex.

The thin steel structure is used to support the second-floor space and roof. To prevent the instability of the small column, we use the cable frame buckling restraint system to make the column only bear the vertical force, creating the continuity of space. The stagnant area of the factory building and the flow area of the creative market are existing at the same time, while the stripped roof implies the direction of the space.

1. The slopes of sawtooth factory buildings are all southward, forming a natural lighting advantage. We use part of the roofs as planting roofs; 2. Use part of photovoltaic solar panels to collect solar energy; Use louver roofs on some permanent place to ensure the indoor space get sufficient lighting.

CREATIVE MARKET

STAGNATION OF FLOW

The central reconstruction part of the building has been shaped into a creative market, which provides the functions of exhibition and goods exchange, supports the vision exchange in the entrance, and forms an excellent public rest place for the citizens.

By using a benign flowing space to drive the vitality of the venue and a stable area to retain visitors and tourists, the community of textile city can make sure that the influx and aggregation of the venue vitality at any time.

COMMUNITYhere. IN PROGRESS

The new textile city is experiencing the new industry revitalization due to the influx of people and frequent business exchanges. Residents will also benefit from this, and young people will have the opportunity to choose to return to the community which they are familiar with and work for him. At the same time, with the new development of the region, the convenient replacement of the structure and the replacement of the format can easily make the textile city complete the transition from transformation to finalization, so that the new vitality of the place can be renewed

I studied several typical parks in Amsterdam, generalised and adapted to the scale of the site by having two orthogonal hard paths running through the park and dividing it into four activity zones, and beyond that the building itself. In order to reinforce the original concept of the toilets and the materials and atmosphere of the scheme. I have tried to make the building and the activities it carries more pure and spiritual by subtracting.

At the same time, I fancy the property of the garden itself, so is it possible to make the majority of the site a pocket park? Having both a public nature park and public toilets give the site a similar nature, and the proximity to the canal also gives the building a better view, looking like a shelter set back from the city, giving a sense of reassurance and protection.

The site was chosen for the project on an open area by the paradiso and the villa, near the street on one side and near the canal on the other. I did not want the public toilet to be a very large and impressive building, but rather to look more unpretentious and welcoming to anyone who wants to come in and use it, retreat and relax for a while and then continue their journey or party, but it should also be cheap and utilitarian and easy to maintain and clean. To achieve this, I did not place the building close to the street, because if I had done so the building would have had to become a larger and more extravagant volume due to the order of the buildings along the street, and the possible smell of the toilets might have made the street less attractive.

02 Sanitary Buildings in the City

The ground floor of the building is entirely devoted to toilets with bathing facilities and some service rooms, while at the same time these toilets are gender-neutral, with two larger spaces on either side for the disabled.

Academic | Individual Work Amsterdam is an extremely cosmopolitan city where people of all colours, nationalities and ethnicities can find a place of their own and you can find almost any facility here. However, first time visitors are puzzled when, after a day of sightseeing, finding a place to go to the toilet and wash up becomes a difficult task, especially for women and disabled people, as there are always plenty of urinals curled up for men to relax temporarily, but this is obviously very unfriendly to women and disabled people. While you can find such places in any restaurant, restaurants that cannot be entered in a lockeddown state in times of epidemics make public toilets an even more urgent agenda. Is Amsterdam still an ACCESSIBLE city?

The height of the building's ground floor has been raised to allow the cleaning section to be opened, allowing users to enjoy the view of the river while bathing without fear of being seen from outside. On the ground floor is a small but more relaxed café that you can easily reach from both outside and inside, and I have likewise increased the size and language of the windows here to make them more unified and comfortable.

The entrance to the building's façade has an open-air washbasin to supply the people moving around next to it with the ability to wash without having to enter the interior, while at the same time suggesting an internal washing function, and the variation of materials in the interior of the first floor seen later echoes the different materials used in the sink section. I have tried to use the simple design language of the building itself to compose the other resting and lingering spaces, you can see some rectangular chairs in the plan, I have used the expression of the wood used in the building as a unified way to make some of the resting spaces also part of the building proper. I have changed to a clean paint job to make the interior cleaner and easier to clean, and this floor is also brighter, with the lowered bay window acting as a resting and waiting space, and the removal of the ceiling at the top to give a more realistic and pure expression of the building structure.

The building is constructed in timber, using sustainable and high strength CLT as the structural layer for the first floor and roof, while the ground floor is made of concrete for waterproofing reasons. The building is assembled and disassembled using a combination of timber columns for ease of assembly and recycling, while the brick surface responds to the texture of the surrounding buildings, but the interior has been chosen for its cheap and easy to maintain lacquer finish, which also brightens and warms up the interior.

24The project site is located in the center of Amsterdam, near the National Museum and the concert hall called Paradiso. The site has not been used for housing due to a constant change of ownership and a slow process of consultation between the government and the neighbors. The design wanted to take an urban perspective and return to the architecture. Taking inspiration from the squares and toilets of Amsterdam, the attempt is to provide a building that truly serves the city and everyone in it. SITE ANALYSIS If the public is not provided with a clean and hygienic space, is this city still accessible? Park Public Toilet Distribution of Park and Public Toilet in Amsterdam √ ××× ×× The analysis on the left summarises the typical pocket park forms and road relationships in Amsterdam and attempts to experiment with these park forms at the scale of our site, resulting in a simple orthogonal road division park form.

Composition and Elements Analysis

1. The volume of the building itself acts as a transitional form between the outer corridor of the Paradiso on the left and the small house of the Villa, with a slight slope of the roof responding to the sloping roof forms on either side.

I do not think the public toilet need to be a very luxury nor impressive building, but rather to look more unpretentious and welcoming to anyone who wants to come in and use it, retreat and relax for a while and then continue their journey or party, but it should also be cheap and utilitarian and easy to maintain and clean. To achieve this, I did not place the building close to the street, because if I had done so the building would have had to become a larger and more extravagant volume due to the order of the buildings along the street, and the possible smell of the toilets might have made the street less attractive.

Having both a public nature park and public toilets give the site a similar nature, and the proximity to the canal also gives the building a better view, looking like a shelter set back from the city, giving a sense of reassurance and protection.

3. Introduced by the trees into the park and then into the building, the ground floor of the building serves as a space for washing and the first floor as a space for rest and relaxation. As a necessary shelter and pause space for the city, you can perform the most basic and most demanding acts of rest here

of the building's façade elements: the exterior corridors, columns and terraces allow the building to relate and dialogue with the paradiso, and the elevated interior staircase responds to the Paradiso's entrance staircase on the one hand, while the higher floor height ensures that people in the wash have a view in the canal direction without being overlooked by others.

4. Several of the building's exterior corridors respond to the relationship between the building and its components in the Paradiso, and the brick material of the cladding on the facade responds to the relationship of the facade.

"People are all related to others. .. .. .. .. .. What happens if you lose contact? "In recent years, there has been a new phenomenon that has attracted the attention of the society, namely, the phenomenon of "missing society." The "edge" is human relations, geography, social relations, etc.. Some has lost connection with society and has become "unknown" or even a forgotten person. However, the phenomenon of "lonely death" derived from it is even more alarming. People are forgotten because they are missing their direction, and they live alone until they are forgotten and die someday. Even at this time, no one pays attention. Finally, they might be discovered merely because of the disgusting odor. Handles the remains, disposed of the relics, in the end, what was left was only a line published in the newspaper: "In a family house in Sancho, a suspected 60-80-year-old person died, and his identity was unknown."

In cinema MamaCoco, it said, "When one is forgotten by all other people in the world, he is really dead then. " But what if one is forgotten when he is still alive? We hope that there are ways to rebuild the relationship between people and awaken people's memories of the forgotten living. On the other hand, I also hope to be alert to the entire society and remind the society of its love for "missing society."

42The Japanese have always had the national character of "not giving others trouble," and their behavior is determined according to the attitude of others. When their fragility, loneliness, and misfortune are unacceptable to this society, they will only choose to bear it silently. This means that the object of isolation and death is not only the poor people living in the bottom but more only live a regular but tough life; their future is likely to become a socially isolated person.

The Japanese believe that "the soul ascended to heaven and reincarnated and the body turns to earth to nourish all the livings." So a plant is often planted next to the grave. People water the plants and prune the leaves to express memorial. CemeteryBuildings BuildingsPark

Cemetery buildings in China are usually far from the city and the wilderness because of traditional taboo, while the Japanese always respect death. Typically, the cemetery is located in the center of the town or around the residential area for grave-sweeping, and people recognize the dead. The daily nature of the cemetery and its commemorative nature give the program a very high degree of freedom. We combine it with the park, take the function of the lighthouse and the form of the monument together, and connect the daily nature of the program with the most considerable degree of the memorial. Let the city's reality and history interweave and urge the city always to remember that there are so many people who are being forgotten.

During photosynthesis, plants can not only break down water into hydrogen and oxygen but also into positively and negatively charged particles. Therefore, plants can directly convert solar energy into electrical energy with the participation of chlorophyll. When it is irradiated by sunlight, it will generate electric current and form a plant battery. Plants are grown by burials photosynthesize, and the electricity is stored in cells to power the lighthouse.

I hope we discussed the canal project as a revival of past infrastructure and constructed multiple grounds, then conceived a future floating art entertainment city prototype. The Art complex serves as a common cultural framework, demonstrates the linking of nearby terminal rail stations and a complex network of four underground metro lines, defining a node of hypermobility. Artists and art lovers lived around the art complex. Art was a medium for people’s communication, and the canal became a carrier of art. Every household had its own art propaganda medium-modular boat. Exhibitions and trades could be carried out by boats. Art rippled through the entire town with ships, taking them to further places in the Canal Culture Circle, integrate into people’s daily lives.

In ancient times, the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal was a medium for information and daily supply exchange. A large number of people gathered on both sides of the canal and earned their livings. The boats brought abundant goods, rare foreign toys, and stories. Cultural events happen along the canal, fostering tourism in riverbank cities. Many families in Tianjin skilled in lunar paintings’ production, promoting a high degree of art gathering and economic growth.

MAPPING OF NOMADIC CANAL CULTURE

The Beijing-Hangzhou Canal connects the Chinese three major cultural circles. Tianjin is a typical ribbon-shaped city, industrialized in trade and transportation. In ancient times, Yangliuqing District was famous for producing Lunar paintings. However, the conservative content of Lunar pictures cannot be recognized by youngsters. Simultaneously, the old town cannot attract more tourists due to its replicated renovation and loss of locality.

6005 White Ring of "Eye-Power" Observing and Being Observed Site: Instructor:Tokyo,JapanYueGuo (yueg@mid-aa.com) Properties: Bathing Architecture Design Started Date: September, 2018 Academic | Individual Work

Foucault's research on space concerns the formation of various institutions in modern Europe, including prisons, clinics, hospitals, etc. In the territory of these disciplines, knowledge, power, space, human body, and other issues are intertwined. In the panoramic open prison designed by Bentham, Foucault interprets this mode as "the Panopticon." I find that the different spatial depths created by asymmetrical visibility can produce exciting spatial experiences. In the bathhouse, people can communicate and observe without hesitation through thick fog. It is a collection of observations and being watched. So I use Foucault's interpretation of Velazquez's “"Las Meninas” to integrate the spatial relationship in the design of the bathhouse building: "perhaps there exists, in this painting by Velazquez, the representation as it were, of Classical representation, and the definition of the space it opens up to us. And, indeed, representation undertakes to represent itself here in all its elements, with its images, the eyes to which it is offered, the faces it makes visible, the gestures that call it into being. But there, amid this dispersion which it is simultaneously grouping and spreading out before us, indicated compellingly from every side, is an essential void: the necessary disappearance of that which is its foundation – of the person it resembles and the person in whose eyes it is only a resemblance. This very subject – which is the same – has been elided. And representation, freed finally from the relation that was impeding it, can offer itself as representation in its pure form."

lists the development and types of Japanese bathhouse. The heterogeneous spatial characteristics are extracted from different brands in different periods and juxtaposed. The topology is in the form of a circular plane to dispel the primary sense of the building, and the form of the center position is further dispersed into multiple chambers to decentralize. Combined to form heterogeneous space; the private bathroom that looks at the sky and nature from the ground, and the space above from the center, etc. respond to the space state of no subject staring and being stared in "Las Meninas, "bringing different space depth and observation way in different angles and positions of limited space. EYE-POWER AND "LAS MENINAS"

TYPE,

painting will depict the king as the protagonist in detail, and thus become the object of the viewer; but "Las Meninas" dispels the subjectivity of the viewer through "the definition of the space it opens up to us," standing directly in front of the picture in a none objectified way. As an abstract form, visual right is used to connect space. Without the meaning of monitoring management, viewing right is like "Las Meninas" in the interpretation of the relationship between space: explore to see and be seen, the angle and position of view coincide with the content of the picture so that multi-perspective and decentralization become the theme of the picture.

Besides, the building has a continuous circulation of streamline to switch the state and view at any time quickly.

Properties: Temporary Theater Design Started Date: April, 2021 Academic | Individual Work

The theatre played the role of an intermediary at that time, people would cheer and communicate while watching the theatre, the theatre allowed people of different cultures and classes to communicate, even if they did not speak the same language and had different cultures. The site itself, where the Ruins of St Paul's is located, is discussing the inheritance and maintenance of an ancient heritage, but completely ignoring the everyday heritage. My design aims to create space for dialogue, so this site provides an opportunity for these two kinds of conservation for architectural sites and the everyday heritage I create to form a connected landscape. Three forms of conservation coexist and different identities come together to create opportunities for dialogue.

Daily Heritage Theatre Shed theatre as a mediator to stimulate the dialogue about the ignorance of identity and daily heritage

Msc2, International Design Studio, TU Delft Site: Macau, China Instructor: Stefano Milani, Micha de Haas

The issues in Macau are the ambiguity of identity and confusion about heritage. And Macau theatres used to exist as a space that could provide these exchanges, and for a while they were hugely popular in Macau, they were different from the cinemas and theatres of today, which were built around temples and churches. The hierarchy of people in Macau was very strict a few decades ago, with Portuguese, Macanese, Chinese, Southeast Asians, rich and poor all having different classes and very little interaction with each other. But in the makeshift theatres built out of sheds, facing God, facing interesting plays, there was no class distinction, people could sit at the front early in the day and watch, but late in the day they could only watch on the shelves, and it was very lively.

The official handover ceremony took place at midnight on 19 December 1999, in the grounds of the Macau Cultural Centre. The handover ceremony ended with the inauguration of the Macau Special Administrative Region at the Macau Cultural Centre in the early hours of December 20th.

1849 Portuguese colonisation 1865 The appearance of the theatre shed 1937 Japanese invasion of China 1966 Cultural Revolution 1974Gambling agian 1999 Return of Macau

According to the records, such temporary theatres were very popular with people from all walks of life, and during the time when the theatre was being set up, it would become the most lively place, with beggars, blind people, seafarers, tourists and rich people all crowding together, some even climbing onto the bamboo scaffolding to watch because there were no seats available, in a very harmonious and frictionless way. During the war against Japan, Macau, like Hong Kong, became a refuge area for people from Guangzhou and the surrounding areas, as Portugal declared Macau "neutral" in the Sino-Japanese war.

The Cultural Revolution, formally the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution, was a violent sociopolitical purge movement in China from 1966 until 1976.

After the assassination and beheading of the Governor of Macau in 1849, the Qing army engaged the Portuguese army in a battle that eventually made Macau a full-fledged colony of the Portuguese Empire.

The development of the gaming industry has led to the expansion of Macau's tourism industry, promoting rapid growth in investment in tourism hospitality facilities and a marked increase in tourism reception capacity

Instead of focusing on the aesthetic expression of the building, Cedric Price insisted on eliminating the form as an element of representation. He destroyed the beauty of architecture and substituted it with the beauty of the user.

Project Description

The Fun Palace is the first project that comprehends the challenges that accompany the “architecture of the digital age”.Cedric Price wanted to eliminate the physical presence of architecture for the benefit of social interaction and use computers and the internet with its different modes and scales of interaction as basic elements of our everyday social interaction.

79 07* Surveillance Palace Msc2, Experiments in Drawing Theory, TU Delft Instructor: Gökçe Önal Properties: Drawing and theory experiments Design Started Date: February, 2021 Academic | Team Work (Teammate: Alice Chau Ka Yee, Rui Wei)

Course Description

In this course, drawing is not only considered to be a technique or instrument for architectural design but also as an autonomous form of architectural knowledge as well as a concept of critical reflection and innovative thinking. The relationship between drawing and theory belongs to a long and well-established tradition, according to which drawing is seen as a significant instrument of representation, namely in its double function of constituting architectural knowledge and as an act of creative construction, capable of modifying the real and refocusing it within the dimension of theoretical and practical construction - often with a pronounced ideological content. More specifically, herein, it is advanced that the rigorous graphic investigation of these remarkable works can disclose the aspects of their theoretical value that cannot be grasped from the simple observation.

We try to deconstruct the fun palace and all the elements will be reorganized in our Palace. We divide these elements into five categories, structure, enclosed space, open space, circulation, and facilities, most of the elements can be adapted according to users. In this way, the greatest pleasure of traditional parks is preserved–the pleasure of strolling casually. This is the hardware of fun palace.

Contribution: Concept, Drawing Translation, Drawing Technique, Drawing Course Detail: https://www.borders-territories.space/Projects/Education/Ed.062

‘Experiments in Drawing Theory’ investigates the speculative power of drawing in developing an architectural position by analyzing three seminal architectural work: Giovanni Battista Piranesi’s Carceri d’Invenzione series (1745/50 – 1761), Aldo Rossi’s Città Analoga (19761981) and Cedric Price’s Fun Palace (1961-1985).

Big data is one of the most prevalent topics for these decades, we envisioned all the visitors in the fun palace are data carriers, data like body temperature and heartbeats can be collected by the sensors that separated in the palace, these sensors can also collect data of environment like acoustic, illuminance and air velocity. This data will be transmitted to the central computer and then be analyzed the system we design, the feedback will be shown in the environment. This process will be repeated until the state of the visitors, space, and environment each the position envisioned. Inour project, sensors, and monitors play a key role in the whole system, they may also result in some ethics problem, we call it AsSurveillancePalace.wementionedbefore,

According to Norbert Wiener, cybernetics is the scientific study of control and communication in the animal and the machine. It is described as the art of steering so it is basically about getting to what you want. It requires feedback for the self-correction system to reach or get closer to your goal. This mechanism creates a conversation between humans and humans by generating feedback.

Cedric Price wanted to eliminate the physical presence of architecture, so how can we adapt the space a nd environment responding to sensors? Then we find that, in graphic design, lines can be used to establish a certain sensibility, which is called a mood line. The mood line idea can be also be applied to the three-dimensional architectural space.

As for the software, we made a timeline that traces the development of technologies that might be used in the palace, with the support of these technologies, there will be many possibilities of what this place could be. Even beyond the expectation of Cedric Price, they might be both positive and negative.

In our project, mood comes from sensors, and we give each mood a specific spatial form so it can be shown physically.

In the fun palace, the feedback loop consists of three steps: sensing, controlling, and acting. Electronic sensors first gather raw information from individual users, the computer would then compile the data to establish overall user trends by setting parameters for modification. At last, the building computer would relocate the building elements such as movable walls and walkways and adapt to the form and layout in use.

DECONSTRUCTING FUN PALACE

81 CYBERNETICS

82 RESEARCH & REFERENCE

“Leisure-and-entertainment facilities today tend to provide specific commercialized types of fun, often offering rather passive enjoyment is specifically designed to comfort zones, the Fun Palace idea of fun is to specifically provide the opportunity to investigate your limits, alone or together with others.”The transformation of the leisure industry seems to warn us that some negative effects might come with the surveillance system. How can the data we collect not be used maliciously a question we have to think about?

DRAWING: SYSTEM &PROGRAM

Jeremy Bentham, in 1785, proposed the Panopticon, a prison building consisting of a rotunda with a shuttered examination room in the middle. This design allowed a single guard to watch all the prisoners in the prison, without the prisoners knowing whether they were being watched or not. In 1975, Michel Foucault used the Panopticon as a metaphor for modern disciplinary society in his book Discipline and Punish. Later Gilles Deleuze observed that technology had enabled the replacement of physically protected facilities such as schools, factories, prisons, and office buildings by automatic surveillance machines that could extend the range of surveillance to manage production and consumption. Through a single screen, people can monitor a large amount of content beyond the reach of the human eye. Bruno Latour saw the panopticon as a form of surveillance that "sees everything but sees nothing", and he proposed a counterpart, the Oligopticon. t is more in line with today's society that the form of surveillance has become "see little but see detailed", from single surveillance to multiple surveillance. Because of technological developments, whether it's surveillance cameras or stolen personal data from mobile phones, people are constantly being watched by a myriad of hidden things around them. In Latour's Actor-network theory, he is usually associated with equal treatment of human and non-human actors, that is, humans no longer serve as the only subject of study. So we imagine what would happen if we made all surveillance and sensor devices the subject of our research, that is, the Oligopticon perspective of surveillance to observe scenarios and reflect on the possibilities and potential threats of information gathering and feedback in Fun Palace in the present society. Since we decided to make it a SurveillancePalace, many movies share a similar idea that came to our minds. The Truman Show, West World, Paprikaand Rear Window. Simulation and virtual world, self-awareness, we can find some similarities in both Fun Palace and our SurveillancePalace.Are there any possibilities to awake the potential skills and talents of visitors through their experience in our Palace?
