Detection:A Deeper Look At Everyday Luggage

Have you noticed that privacy leaks are getting more and more serious?
Detection is a shared archive published on the Internet. People can browse the luggage of passengers at 5 different underground stations in the order of the time.Click to view the contents of each bag, and see the items scanned by security inspection through the gaps in order from the outermost layer to the innermost layer. I asked in advance if I would be allowed to photograph their personal belongings. The station which has fewer people who don't permit me take pictures, the weaker the awareness of privacy protection. The larger the field of view, the easier it is to see objects.When people carefully judge what the items in the luggage are, they have actually peeked into the privacy of others.

Long press the mouse, the wider the field of view can be.

The size of the gap at each station depends on the privacy protection awareness of crowd at each station.

Enepilly

In China, food therapy has been regarded as a very common thing and integrated into life. During Covid-19, social media caused panic through shocking headlines, which attracted elderly people to repost messages, leading to a large number of rumors, most of which were about food therapy that can treat Covid-19. The Chinese elderly have always believed in food therapy, that it is widely spread. This caused a lot of serious side effects.
Enepilly is a virtual meal replacement brand shopping platform. Its advertising story seems to promote its own products, but it satirises the concept that food is medicine as understood by the elderly. It uses factories to process food into medicines and then sells its own meal pill for curing disease, putting them in the form of food. The relationship between food and medicine has been blurred many times.
This project aims to make young people aware of the absurdity of the problems caused by the concept of old people taking food as medicine and remind young people to care about the elderly.

Each dish represents a type of organ. Eating this dish can cure diseases. I searched for foods that the elderly said are good for this organ, and made them into pills with various materials according to their colours.
