Human activities have caused the increase of CO2 emissions, people are searching for technological ways to control CO2. Invisible Reinvention is inspired by the eco-friendly carbon sequestration technology, combining future environment with organism and nonorganism. We are building future ecosystems in the three environments that naturally store the most CO2: the oceans, the soil and the rocks. When technology combines with nature, how will CO2 be reinvented?

Please touch the surface of the interactive installation to discover more about the future environment.



Human activities have caused the increase of CO2 emissions and environmental problems.

Different technologies have been developed to control and reduce CO2 emissions. Our project 'Invisible Reinvention' is based on one of the technologies - Carbon Sequestration.
We have chosen ocean, soil and rocks as the design background as these three environments can store the largest amount of CO2 in nature. And we have added organic and inorganic elements required by each environment artificially in order to create more carbon sequestration products and to build an eco-friendly future.


Our project is an interactive video installation that is formed of three parts.
Part 1 - A moving image, showing an overview of the three future environments.
Part 2 - Interactive installations with distance sensors, showing how the three physical carbon sequestrations within the environment might look like.
Part 3 - Three moving images, showing the three processes of future environmental carbon sequestration. They also show how CO2 can be combined with technology to form weird and special carbon sequestration products in ocean, soil and rocks.

Our project also requires interaction from the audience. When the audience enters the exhibition, he is expected to watch the moving image of Part 1.When he later approaches the interactive installations of Part 2, he will be able to touch and feel the carbon sequestration products in three different materials.Then the distance sensor will monitor the installation closest to the audience and play the moving image of Part 3 corresponding to the installation accordingly.


Take part in 12-week project competition Luminous with LG Displays,

Information Experience Design students from the Royal College of Art participated in a 12-week project competition with LG Displays, with the purpose of generating transformative experience of information that challenges or disrupts perspective.

Compared to normal LED, OLED uses organic light-emitting diodes with higher quality and greater energy efficiency. It also explores how science, technology and the environment can be used together to create a better watching experience. We hope that by viewing our work, it will lead the audience to think: 'Can humans use technology to coexist with the environment? Can technology be more environmental friendly and sustainable in the future?'
