Redesign the World:元宇宙,小社群与隐科技

原创 2021-12-10


数百万年来,地球一直孕育着生命。但由于农业、采矿、工业和建筑等人类活动,此刻的地球正受到威胁。污染和栖息地的破坏威胁着生态系统,气候变化威胁着所有的生灵。

许多科学家认为,我们现在处于一个被称为人类世的新地质时代,在这个时代,人类活动是影响地球的地质和气候的主导力量。

Planet Earth has harboured life for millions of years, but this is now under threat due to human activities such as agriculture, mining, industry and construction. Pollution and habitat destruction threaten ecosystems while climate change poses an existential threat to all life forms.


Many scientists believe we are now in a new geological era called the anthropocene, in which human activity is the dominant force affecting the earth's geology and climate.

随着环境问题的增加,人类已经提出了各种激进的解决方案,包括通过化学或物理干预来改变地球气候的地球工程提案。


与此同时,针对气候变化的解决方案中还包括了大规模投资可再生能源和可从空气中吸收二氧化碳的机器。


As environmental problems mount, various radical solutions have been proposed including geoengineering proposals to alter the earth's climate through chemical or physical intervention.

Meanwhile, proposed solutions to climate change include massive investment in renewable power coupled with vast arrays of machines that can suck carbon dioxide out of the air.

但人类为什么要停在那里?为什么不把地球视为有史以来最大的设计挑战?如果我们将地球视为白板并重新设计会怎样?


在建筑可视化工具 Twinmotion的技术支持下,“重新设计世界”将成为终极的设计竞赛,呼吁大家以一种崭新的方式来思考地球。

But why stop there? Why not treat the earth as the biggest design challenge of all time? What if we treat the planet as a blank slate and redesign it from scratch?


Powered by architectural visualisation tool Twinmotion,“Redesign the World“ is the ultimate design competition, which called for new ideas to rethink planet Earth.

人类总是求助于新技术来解决问题。这些新技术推动了巨大的革新,但更多的时候,在试图解决现有问题的同时又将产生全新的的问题。

从这个意义上来说,科技一直是把双刃剑。

Humanity has always turned to new technologies to address its problems. This has led to huge innovations, but more often than not those technologies have created entirely new problems, while trying to solve the existing ones.


In that sense technology has always been a double-edged sword.

如果我们能摆脱这种恶性循环会怎样?如果我们能用最先进的技术来解决最古老的问题又会发生什么?

两全其美是可以实现的。我们可以与自然和谐相处,而不是试图主宰它。我们可以摆脱未知巨型城市的里孤立感,然后创建一些紧密的当地社群。

What if we could escape this vicious cycle? What if we could use our most advanced technologies to solve our very oldest problems?


We could truly have the best of both worlds. We could live in harmony with nature, rather than try to dominate it. We could escape the isolation of anonymous mega-cities and build strong local communities.

如果全球化的疫情暴露了一些问题,那就是因为我们的全球化系统十分脆弱,越来越容易受到破坏。如果我们能够使用科技来创造一个去中心化、有弹性的且更加稳定的生活方式会怎样?


If the pandemic has shown anything, it is that our globalised system is highly fragile and increasingly susceptible to disruption. What if we could use technology to create a decentralised and resilient anti-fragile way of life?

在通讯革命之前,信息稀缺且难以触及。而现在,信息无所不在,丰富且免费。在这样的背景下,可以在现实世界上叠加一个交互式信息层——一个元宇宙,以帮助人类完成他们想要完成的任何事情。这样,数字世界就可以与物理世界融合,也就是说,将自然与人工相结合。而叠加意味着:两个世界可以共享一个物理空间。


Before the communication revolution information was scarce and difficult to access. Now information is ubiquitous, abundant and free. The way forward therefore is to superimpose an interactive information layer - a metaverse - over the real world to help accomplish human beings whatever they want to accomplish. That way the digital world can be merged with the physical world - combining the natural with the artificial, which means the two worlds can share one physical space.

在我们对未来交通和通讯进步的构想中,人们不必聚集在大城市。相反,可以在世界各地组织成不同规模的小社群,这是十分可行的,因为这样的社群不会以任何方式干扰现有的生态系统,且它们对周围环境的影响是最小的。食物供应链是当地的,且十分充足。在所需的时间和知识成本非常少的情况下,许多人选择种植蔬菜或饲养牲畜。

In our vision of the future advances in transportation and communication have made it unnecessary to congregate in huge cities. Communities are instead organised in clusters of different sizes all across the world, which is possible, since they don’t disturb existing eco-systems in any way whatsoever and their impact to their surroundings is minimal. The food-supply is local and abundant. Many people choose to grow vegetables or raise livestock, as the required time and knowledge to do so is now minimal.
未来之家在内部和外部之间没有明确的界限——在自然和人工环境之间并没有清晰的藩篱。建筑的进步让每个人都能支付得起自己的房子,也不必担心供暖,制冷以及维护。光纤科技甚至能在不耗能的情况下为地下空间带来自然光。

The home of the future does not have a clear boundary between inside and outside - between the natural and built environment. Advances in architecture have made it possible for everyone to afford their own home and to not have to worry about heating, cooling or maintaining it. Fiberoptic technology brings natural daylight even to underground spaces, consuming no energy at all.

食物和住所等实际的生活必需品问题已经解决了。但是社交互动和休闲活动呢?最终版本的元宇宙将会解决这些问题:


So physical necessities like food and shelter are taken care of. But what about social interaction and leisure activities? The final iteration of the metaverse has solved those issues:

在未来之家,每一个平面、每一个材料都能作为一个交互式屏幕。客厅可以随意变身为成酒吧,画廊,体育场或中世纪的日本,与此同时,客厅中遍布了在同一个虚拟空间出现的人群的全息投影。这些由A.I.来完成的体验可以增强用户与用户之间的互动,甚至可以生成动态故事。结合XR技术和隐科技,我们可以随时进出虚拟世界,不需要穿戴设备,也不需改变起居环境的自然机理。


In the house of the future every surface and every material also functions as an interactive screen. At will the living room can transform itself into a bar, an art gallery, a sports arena or medieval Japan - populated by interactive holograms of real people who are visiting the same virtual space at the same time. These experiences are supported by A.I., which can facilitate interaction between users and even generate dynamic stories. Combined with XR technology and Hidden-tech, we can access the virtual world anytime without wearing any equipment or changing the natural mechanism of the living environment.

在我们的构想里:人, 作为一个独立的个体, 我们重新营造的世界并不需要以巨型城市,飞行的汽车,悬浮的办公楼为载体。在科技和信息的加持下,在我们享受生活和社交便利的同时,让我们的生活回归到史前纪元,把森林和山川河流归还给土地,我们回归洞穴,和最亲密的族人在一起,远眺没有被灯光污染的星空,但同时和远在大洋彼端的陌生人一起,同饮一杯酒。


Our vision imagines the human being as an individual, the world we recreate does not need to be carried by giant cities, flying cars and suspended office buildings. Empowered by technology and information, let our life go back to the prehistoric era while enjoying life and social convenience. Let us return the forests, mountains and rivers to the land and get back to the cave, looking at the starry sky without being polluted by light with the closest tribe. At the same time, however, sharing a glass of wine with strangers far beyond the ocean.
