“Around 7 meters is more fun”創造一個特殊的情境，藉由情境與限制，去轉變溝通方式。參與者為了理解展示的視覺效果，不僅需要仰賴觀察者的描述、描繪和表達，更需要這些來傳達意義。這種互動促進了參與者和觀察者之間更緊密的合作，彌合了所見和所未見之間的差距，重新定義了人類感知的多面性。其中也運用機器學習的方式，去限制操作參與者無法看見其自己創造的結果，而觀察者也無法運用相機紀錄其結果，這兩種規則去賦予軟體表現接近於人類的情感邏輯，藉由此方法，去製造特殊的感知與互動經驗，重新思考可見和不可見之間的關係。

"Around 7 meters is more fun" creates a unique context that transforms communication by exploiting contextual elements and visuality constraints. In order to  understand the visual effects generated, participants rely not only on the observer's descriptions, depictions, and expressions but also need these to convey some meaning. This interaction triggers a closer collaboration between participants and observers, bridging the gap between the seen and the unseen and redefining the multiplicity of human perception. Machine learning is used to restrict participants from seeing the output of their own interventions, while observers are deprived from using their cameras to record these results. These two rules provide the software with a closer approximation to human emotional and social logic, creating a unique experience of perception and interaction from which to rethink the relationship between the visible and the invisible.
