디자인을 넘어선 그 무언가를 위해,

시간의 구속을 받지 않는 곳, 상일의유산

Moonwalk on the Silver Record

: the Meme Design of Reality


On April 26, 2021, 

the initial idea was to imprint the first human footprint on the Moon, left by Buzz Aldrin, onto a vertically sliced white moon jar with an attached pipe frame.


However, since the moon jar is too common, I decided to put the idea on hold.


On April 30, 2024, 

I reimagined this idea by parodying the "Voyager's Golden Record", creating what I called the 'Silver Record'. 

I imprinted Buzz Aldrin's footprint onto a stainless steel, moon jar-shaped plate, the Silver Record. 


At the bottom, I attached legs inspired by the Space-Age style of Achille Castiglioni’s design, aiming to create an object that could communicate humanity's moon landing to extraterrestrial beings—a moon jar-shaped 'Silver Record spacecraft'.


On September 3, 2024, 

while senior colleagues initially opposed the production, I decided to proceed with it. 

Surprisingly, the CEO of @kkangtong_chef, as a maker of this project, made and gifted a white version of this design to me. Thanks to this gift, I fortunately got my original idea—a white moon jar with Buzz Aldrin's footprint—in a modified form.


This work is an attempt to demonstrate what the 'Meme Design of Reality and Virtual' is.

Moonwalk on the Silver Record

I define this 'Easy Design'
Easy design means designing easily. Design is something that is not huge, artificial, serious, complex, difficult, but the transferring what you think.
