Abstract
In urban landscapes, towering structures and adorned windows weave a tangible web across the spaces that people inhabit, resembling a complex network. Screens, in their innate resemblance to windows, share a rectangular form, acting as frames or portals that bridge two or more realms. As a generation that grew up in cities and witnessed the development of the internet, I instinctively harbor suspicions about these connections. Because, at some point, whether in physical reality or digital reality, I constantly shift from one rectangular space to another. It's as if existence itself has been arranged and compartmentalized into boxes. It seems like we are online anytime, anywhere, and offline becomes an impossibility. I’m interested in the shifting and the overlapping between different boxes.

Fabrications(wood, plastic, metal, paper related stuff, 3d printing, laser cutting): explain why stretch objects to fit in that specific box/ratio/dimension
Maybe(PCB for screen circuit or video projection)
