is usually in the domain of astronauts,
but back in 2014 as
part of the Yokohama Triennial, “Space Space” was an installation recreating a night view of the earth from space using an LED
system, a view of earth from 3,000km (1864 mi) encompasses visitors as the walk
on a transparent platform,
Japanese astronaut Mamoru Mohri: “I could see no border on
earth from space.” Inspired by this illuminating thought, Japanese designer
Eisuke Tachikawa (Nosigner)
wants to show us what Mohri saw through an immersive, technological art
installation, pictured
here is an installation of Japan and Asia,
but Eisuke Tachikawa has recently launched a campaign to
recreate his installation in Yokohama which will portray North America from
space, so hopefully you to can 'walk in space' and see what up to now only astronauts would have seen.
