The Best Route
这个项目的灵感来中国社会时钟，它规定了上大学、工作、结婚、买房的最佳时间，这份时间表让我感到压力。
最佳路线这个项目探索了社会时钟对人的导航作用。通过采访，记录不同年龄群体的人生时间表，探索其个人时钟与社会时间表的关联。基于“引导性，起点，目标，路线，感受”五个相似点，将社会时钟与地图导航app结合，通过研究路线导航来研究人生导航。项目最终呈现为短片动画，讲述在一个全民安装人生导航的世界，不同人面对最佳路线时的选择，及多重选择导向的不同结果。
这个项目代表了我在承认自身局限性的同时摆脱社会期望的愿望。希望这个项目能启发人们在社会时钟下找到自己个人时间表。
The project was inspired by the Chinese social clock, which dictates the best time to go to college, work, get married, and buy a house, which is a potential traditional timeline that stresses me out. The Best Route explores the navigational role of the social clock. Through interviews, I recorded the life timelines of different age groups and explored how their own clocks relate to social timelines. Based on the five similar factors of "guidance, starting point, goal, route, and feeling", I combined the social timetable with a web mapping to investigate life guidance through the study of route navigation. The outcome of the project is an animated short film depicting the choices people make in a world where everyone has a life navigation app, showing different results of multiple choices. The Best Route represents my desire to break free from societal expectations while acknowledging my limitations, I hope it inspires people to find their personal timetable under the social clock.
