With the expansion of the Internet and its connectivity to related technology, media and information networks have spread rapidly across the globe. We are constantly exposed to streams of information everyday. However, what do we actually know? In a world where incidents are treated with similar analytical processes and absorbed by newly-released information, how can we regard each of the incidents as something that can happen to you? Where is the space for the imagination?

In this event, we provide a flood of information through 10 speakers placed between the seats, 16 super tweeters hang from the ceiling, 6 projection screens suspended at various angles, LED light displays and other audio-visual equipment are also included in the space. When we are forced to face in danger − our brink − what do we see? This is an experiment to question the brink of reality.

The title, <h />our<br />link consists of four words; hour and our, brink and blink.
To show the double meaning, the title is written as HTML language.
