Project Description

A forestry robot stationed in a wilderness area; a tree-planting competition fueled by a strong competitiveness; an unexpected encounter with a “mysterious ancient relic” – triggered a strange event full of greenery and screams.
Mixcode Studio is honored to participate in 2023 Pause Originals and explore the world beyond 2050 with everyone. Inspired by the widely used “drone reforestation” around the world in recent years, we created a lonely robot performing afforestation tasks in vast wilderness. Its indomitable spirit and perseverance will shake the barren land!
Through this work, we hope all small actions we take from now on can grow into a huge canopy of trees after 30 years!
