ryuji nakamura: midget + giant


'midget & giant' by ryuji nakamura


'midget & giant' is a paper house that is built for one's personal computer.
designed by japan-based architect ryuji nakamura, the small abode is meant to be
set-up over a web camera that is built into a computer monitor.
the interior of the house is projected onto the monitor so that you find yourself looking
into the house through its window. you looking at the inside from the outside
and you looking outside from the inside mix, and you see yourself becoming small
and big at the same time.
