Porject Description - The Connected Streets

Our aim on this project is to connecting completely two different societies or cultures. While everyone living their own daily life or routine, we would like people to see how the life goes on around the world. What are differences or similarities? How people have fun or go to work everyday. So through this project, we would like to add people a different point of view and a world vision. Imagine a man in Istanbul walking on the sideway and right next to him a man in New York running for to catch the bus and many more examples like this... We want to create this by using improved high-tech "tele-presence" technics. Of course ours will only be a demo of this technic. Creating a huge panel on the sideway of along a commonly used street like always crowded 7/24. This billboard is going to be a massive screen which has high-definition cameras placed inside and same panel to a different country's major city like Istanbul and New York. So people will be observing and sort of living together in these two cities.
