Concept idea:
Based on my research topic of utopia city, I did many research about Archigram's fantasy proposals. Thus, I am interested in creating my own visionary spatial imagination of our future. In my own perspective, I believed that flying machine would be the main transportation in the our future city, carfree city would appear.
Based on the "lunavity" product concept, I would like to design a new urban planning. People are allowed to get out from the window but not door, the city were not only developed on the ground but also in the sky.
Actually, LUNAVITY is just a backpack Multirotor for Jump Augmentation. But I think this design has much more potential that could be developed into a flying machine. In my project, I would use this as my imagination flying machine for the whole city.
My first draft.
New rules in the sky?
How does this new situation could be monitored?

Flying City
A city where everyone got a flying machine.
I am using Blender GIS to create the landscape of Hong Kong, Central.
Process:
The traffic warden for the sky.
Since I want to use the flying machine from Lunavity to present my idea, I try to use to 2D picture found from internet to convert into 3D in blender.
This website is awesome that it could make character from PNG/JEPG into OBJ file , but the problem is that it cannot recognize object, so I was failed to gain my LUNAVITY model.
Failed 3D models.
Here I only import PNG image for the flying model.
How it could be installed in a space?
Watching from the internet is clear enough.
If my work would be displaced in a real place, probably show on a big screen and put large scale graphic pictures on the wall.
This is an amusement path for people to play with, people can running on it with the flying machine to enjoy a different angel. It also a tunnel that people could fly through it.
This is a romantic idea but also a disaster in reality. The super loud rumbling sound would be there from day to night.
I think the piano melody provides an unreachable feeling of a dream.
