'A Stone’s Throw Away' is a sequential gameplay projection, extrapolating human-directed lifestyle in response to environmental concerns and technological adaptation. Through speculative fiction, this project explores the impending future being as suggested – a stone’s throw away. The speculated situation of what human lifestyles could become in the year 2222 lies in the curated digital environment, coupled with subtle cues that suggest the deconstruction of primitive instincts and disruption to our social nature. The curated digital environment reflects what the artist believes as the ideal scenario of lifestyle evolution, with reference to our reliance on science and technology as a coping mechanism to adapt and improve the quality of living with our situation at hand.
