As in Stargate, this portal allows you to connect to any city in the world
Both completely unnecessary and totally awesome. This is what comes to mind when discovering the invention of the engineers of Vilnius Gediminas Technical University. Thanks to them, residents of the capital of Lithuania can now stop in front of a giant screen with a futuristic design and see live what is happening 606 kilometers away, in Lublin, Poland. Anecdotal? Not that much.
If everyone has been talking about “Portal” for a few days, it is because it completely disrupts our relationship to distance, and allows us to build a bridge both temporally and mentally between two distant points, recalling in its own way the finest sci-fi series, from Star Trek ( teleportation ) to Stargate (and its famous stargate).
In detail, the connected door allows users of the two doors installed in Vilnius and Lublin to greet each other and exchange views as if they were on the phone, but with the added image. A clear link with the past year and the democratization of the Zoom tool, whose revenues have increased by 326% thanks to the pandemic. In a post-world traumatized by the idea of isolation and quarantine, the Vilnius Portal seems to have a future, as two new models are expected to emerge soon to connect the city to Reykjavik and London. And it's hard to imagine how this giant WhatsApp could not give birth to children all over the world.
"Portal awakens our perception of meeting and welcoming, of people we usually exclude, or who we find different from people and cultures we do not yet know", we can read on the Benediktas Foundation website Gylys , behind the very idea of the connected portal. Perhaps the best answer to those who are slipping away on the fear of great replacement or migratory invasions. Offering the joy of the strange to fight against the fear of strangers, that is perhaps the final message of this tool from the future to rethink the idea of unity.
Strongly his arrival in France.
