Have you ever wished you could see through a wall? What if the walls were made out of glass? It would be amusing if they were transparent. Then the world would appear completely different. Or have you ever wanted to stop time? The world I want to live in has a different way of interpreting space and time.

Transparency and Colors

Materials with different thicknesses of glass will disperse light like prisms. In such a world, we can experience literal transparency. In my world, everything is made of glass; the walls, fmoors, and furniture are all
- transparent. Light goes through the walls,
and there is always a play of light and colors.

Once someone told me: “if everything in the world was made out of glass, we would see colors we have never seen before.” Glass will create a greater level of complexity.

Objects might also look magnifjed, or minimized due to the different thicknesses
- f the glass used in any complex. Light
will fmow freely in space without being interrupted.
SLIDE 11
This world will have a different sense of dimension and distance. Things like bush-mazes will be more diffjcult because
- f the optical illusion created by glass.
With greater amount of light and transparency, spaces will look larger and not interrupted by opaque brick walls. Rather, they will be connected closely to the outside environment.

Time

In my world I can play with time, I can always stop it, fjnish my work, and then run it again. I can also stop accidents, such as falling of objects.

Then with only water, one can create beautiful and one of a kind “time-made” sculptures; sculpture that would only exist in fragments of a non-existing time, and be destroyed before anyone can ever see them.

Thinking about this always makes me wonder if anyone else can stop time like
- me. If yes, a lot of things can happen that
no one will notice.
