The next generation internet will enable new forms of digitized communication between humans and machines, which has the great potential to change the way we teach and learn new skills. Taking the example of piano playing, we show first insights in our ongoing research at the Centre for Tactile Internet with Human-in-the-Loop (CeTI).

Earth Tour
André Chiang (TW), Billy Chang (TW), Hsin-Chien Huang (TW), Wen-Chieh Chang (TW)

The plants growing on earth nourish us, and someday we will all return to the ground. It is where life ends as well as begins. Soil is no doubt the stop for the transition of life. Thus, in the program “Earth Tour”, viewers will participate in a performance art called “Taste Soil”, which intends to rethink the relationship between humans and land by means of “eating.”
Animated Tour
Chun-Chieh Lien (TW), Po-Han Lee (TW), Vick Wang (TW), Wu-Ching Chang (TW), Yu-Ting Hsueh (TW)

Imagination is a superpower. When imaging ourselves in the world of animation, every one of us has become a superhero. In the Animated Tour, viewers can devote themselves to the characters via different programs, abstract or figurative in terms of visual style, to experience anxiety and frustration all the way to happiness and growth. Getting rid of this disappointing reality, viewers shall continue the “Taiwan Grand Tour” through their imagination.
Immersive Tour
Ami Wu (TW), Chi-Yen Chiang (TW), Ghung-I Hung (TW), Hsiao-Yue Tsao (TW), Hsin-Chien Huang (TW), Nina Barbier (FR), Shih-Chou Wen (TW), WenChieh Chang (TW)

VR comes with a memorable immersive experience, making it possible to temporarily transcend the limitations of time and space, letting audiences experience freedom of movement and their desire to explore the world. Therefore, in “Immersive Tour,” as the first part of the “Formosa Grand Tour,” viewers can wander among the mountains, oceans, and rivers in the digital world, even outer space!
Architecture of Friendship
Santiago Latorre (ES), Sara Paniagua (ES), Nieves Arilla (ES)

“The Architecture of Friendship” is a collective project inspired by the notion of ecosystem and the value of interdependence, led by the Spanish composer/engineer Santiago Latorre. The group takes its name from the words of Hannah Arendt, who after being accused of lack of love for the Jews, responded: "You are quite right. I don't love any people – neither the French nor the North American nor the Jewish nor the Blacks. I love only my friends."
