In ancient times when money was not invented, trading as a whole was depended on barter system. Barter system is a system in which goods or services are directly exchanged for other goods or services without the use of a monetary medium. Thus, there is no universal measure of value under the barter system. Instead, the activity of bargaining to meet a mutual exchange agreement is practiced. Our te
am entitled (YIWUYIWU) is also a design project that provides a barter trading platform for designated members. Eventually, we hope that this project will be developed into an event to inspire the general public about the different perception of value & worth among each other, so that we could all learn to respect each others’ values more objectively. Devoid from the complexity of modern monetary system, this event fully utilized the basic needs of consumerism without excessive wastage of industrialization. Furthermore, this event provides an opportunity for people to get know on each other better in the process of bargaining. It will certainly be a fun trade event for you to experience. Event Date: 21/02/2012 - 24/02/2012
Event Time: 10am-5pm
Venue: Dasein Academy of Art (Gallery)
