The tree serves as a platform for individuals to express their thoughts and ideas on various topics. By integrating QR codes onto leaves cut from pages of discarded books, it fosters a digital dialogue that transcends the limitations of physical space, allowing users to explore a wealth of perspectives. This way, the library can become a dynamic space igniting discussions and sharing diverse viewpoints, embellished by the students themselves.
Students: Merel Franke, Justin Jo, Beatriz Monteiro, Esther Park, and Radhika Sehgal.
