Project Description
As our reliance on computer-based devices becomes stronger, we continually find ourselves at
the intersection between the physical world and the virtual world. These two worlds have very
different natures but they are very closely related with respect to how they define human interaction.
In this project, our goal is to examine the relationship between the physical and virtual worlds by
producing a series of snapshots of daily life that reflect the interplay between our lives in those
two domains. Each snapshot will concentrate on some metaphorical activities from our virtual life with
its origin from our physical life. In essence, we want to identify the accepted metaphors that have come
to define our virtual interactions, and re-appropriate them back into the physical domain. We call this
concept a re-appropriated metaphor. We hope this project will demonstrate to our audience the extent to
which our daily lives are defined by these metaphors.
