Instant infra structure by trace

For the perspective of present, social promises (signal system) such as the crossings or traffic lights are passive perception system of information that users perceive the fixed place and information two dimensionally. However these social promises must be active, temporal and flexible methods where numerical situational changes and information of the density and direction of the moving population can interact in this mobile situations where the occurrence of the communication and information is temporal and instant

  
     
   
  Creating trace and trace fade-out  
  With Instant infrastructure by trace, the direction and density of all the individuals using this device are recorded as information instantly. This accumulated information is visualized as the trace of the remaining view of city users in the movement of the rapidly changing city. For example, the crossings do not function in a specific direction and place, but the place, direction and size of them repeat to appear and disappear according to the situations of moving population. City users customize the infra of all the cities and this behavior occurs as remaining image and become signs to the others.

FROM THE FORM TO THE FORMATION


Although they are not in contemporary, the traces and the city interact and they communicate with the traces of the remaining information. Human behaviors makes traces in the city, the order is made by people and the formal area becomes the culture of mobile communication with various formations responding to the changing situations rather than concrete forms. Interestingly, Instant infrastructure by trace resembles the process of making footprints on a sand desert.
