As a transformative performing landscape in Venice, 'Veniscape' explores the possibility of a feedback system in architecture, by responding to users' ratings through space transformations. With reference to the Social Credit System, the Veniscape is a dynamic landscape with changeable volumes in which floor panels rotate to create water boundaries around stages for performances.

In this digital era, every second of our lives are rendered by different digital instruments and are managed by authoritarian regimes. The focus of this system is transferred from human beings to the architecture itself. Instead of seeing a cashless society as the manifestation of a dystopian world, the architecture uses performance ratings as a control currency to promote a utopian ideology in performance spaces.

A rating system is applied to alter spatial qualities to suit users’ varying needs. The qualities of the performance landscape are changed in accordance with the ratings supplied by the previous audience for the show, and converted into an explorative experience of users. Thus, users are often living in the memory of the last performance. The design brings to mind the extent people are influenced by ratings and explores possibilities for a future architecture that can act on rating systems generously.
