Forest of Hedonistic Symbiosis

Oscar Lo (Year: 2)

The future forest targeted by the project would be the speculative scenario of the near future where forests coexist with social media. The project depicts the new form of relationship between the city of Jakarta and its riverbanks. By POSTING and LIKING on social media platforms, people empower the reforestation of mangroves along the riverbanks which protect the city itself from the potential flooding. Besides, the project also speculates a form of consequence after the reforestation as a recreational park which aims to generate more POSTS on media platforms in order to trigger the reforestation in other parts of the city.
