Pass It On

How does an idea keep moving after its author leaves?

Oral memory, the 868 Diamond Sutra, coexisting translations, an open kitchen and a balance form one route from transmission to open-source ecosystems.

  • Three historical stages: oral transmission, print and translation
  • Public-domain material including the Diamond Sutra
  • Spatial devices including an open kitchen and a balance
  1. Avoid turning knowledge into long wall text
  2. Use installations to carry comparison and questions
  3. Make the analogy between scripture transmission and open-source ecosystems legible

Analogy helps people enter unfamiliar knowledge, but its limits must remain visible. The exhibition keeps the tension between open ideals and commercial strategy.
