Business Overview
SNS is an indispensable means of communication in daily life. However, when I looked at myself objectively, I found myself going out of my way to post when other people seem to be logging in, cleaning up the area before taking a picture, worrying when I get a LINE notification even when I'm talking to someone face to face, and spending a lot of time looking at SNS .... I find it funny that I live my life at the mercy of SNS. This is an attempt to visualize the world of SNS. “HASHTAG 3.0 ” depicts the world of SNS and the human beings at the mercy of it through video works and live performances. Using LINE during the performance, the audience acts as the facilitator of the performance, providing a one-of-a-kind viewing experience where the performer and audience create the work together.
