Flying Display Windows

Junji Kezuka

An aerial display window consisting of an LCD monitor hanging from a flying drone. Advertisements of local stores are shown on the monitors. Roadside poles act as charging stations for the drones. The drones are each equipped with a bright spotlight; when charging on the poles, the drones double as street lamps.
