Stars in Scrolls
Every classic is a star chart. Heroes of Three Kingdoms, spirits of Journey to the West, fates of Red Chamber, cycles of One Hundred Years of Solitude, epics of War and Peace - when relationships are projected into deep space, what flickers is not just stories but the spectrum of civilization.
About This Work
Words on ancient scrolls are flat, but the relationships between characters never are. Stars in Scrolls lifts knowledge networks from classic literature and historical works into infinite virtual deep space: each character becomes a star, each bond a thread of light. Currently featuring 11 classics - the Four Chinese Masterworks, world literature (One Hundred Years of Solitude, How the Steel Was Tempered, War and Peace,Erta Tuji), and historical works (Sapiens, A Global History, Concise History Series) - different scrolls, the same sky.
