A QR code contains information with fast readability, it is a digital symbol of our times. Digitalised. Virtualised. Dematerialised. But on the other hand, our adaptation as humans is not as fast as technology is. Nowadays we are devoted to the technology, apparently it is important for us. We have faith in tech. This QR code is materialised to go in and experience a metaphorical journey, an ultra-fast pilgrimage trying to balance our primitive and technological needs. We start the journey entering from the carbon society. While we walk through the green corridor we absorb all the condensed amount of data of living nature. The same QR code is in the centre inside an illuminated box from the bottom full of sprouts, symbols of nature and inspiration to reverse the destruction of the earth going towards a post-carbon society. %K Installation %K Environmental arts %K QR %K Code %K Symbol %K Instalación %K Arte medioambiental %K Código %K Símbolo %K Literatura %K Literature %K Medio ambiente %K Environmental science %~ Biblioteca Universidad de Alcala
