As Internet becomes more and more popular and advanced, people want to keep online and share his/her status with friends at any time and any place. Because of this trend, all kinds of websites that provide social networking services, such as Twitter, become very popular rapidly.
However, as more and more social networking users demanding higher immediateness and interaction, using mobile device to send message or to ‘tweets’ their status is still insufficient. Consequently, they start to integrate everyday commodities (such as coffee mug) with electronic sensors. These reformed commodities or furniture can communicate with computer through wireless channel, so that the system could know the current status of the user. With this configuration, the system would ‘tweets’ what they are doing to Twitter website. For example, when people turn off the light at the living room and get ready to go to bed late at night, the system would send message such as ‘I am going to bed, good night’ automatically because the light is obviously dimmed; or when the user holds his/her mug, the system would send message such as ‘so thirsty, let’s have a cup of mocha’ or something like that.
During the exhibition, participants can share own private status with worldwide friends by just a simply behavior of using these reformed commodities or furniture. On the other hand, participants also can follow the “Life Twitter Live” in Twitter website, and therefore they can ‘monitor’ everything in the exhibition space anytime anywhere.
In summary, artist proposed a system that reshape everyday commodities bundle with sensors. When users use these reformed commodities, the system would "tweets" what they are doing to the social network automatically.
