...Joe Average...“have you ever seen the city from a different point of view? Try them on. They dont show you new things but they show you things differently...” Joe takes the glasses. Suddenly he remindes his childhood days, everything used to be like a big adventurepark to him when he was a kid. Buildings turned into huge monsters, clouds into candy,...

...The same day in Everyville, Jane and John Q. Public arrive in town. They are tourists, visiting this nice city with all its great monumental architecture. The city is just famous for everything. The couple starts strawling arround, after a while “so this is it?! This is how Everyville is like?!”

Through a system of filters offered by street vendors, the existing structures can be seen differently to make their flexibility of use visible. Meeting places are being created all over the city. Where the routes of the tourists and the inhabitants cross, the filtering systems start to overlap and interact.
