The project started with a research study of “Tech Noir” as a film genre, then landed as an urban discourse that unites different sensory theatres-Taste, Sound, Touch, Visual, and Olfactory-each offering unique narrative experiences. The City_Plex fosters non-linear connections between theatres, creating a cohesive yet diverse experiential landscape. City-Plex blurs the lines between filmic and physical spaces, questioning whether we are inside the film or the film is inside our city, ultimately serving as an experiential medium that reshapes urban reality.
