Currently, overinformation is used as a method of censorship, this is due to the digitalization of the Internet that has democra- tized the content and generated a saturation of sources.
Tab.net was created with the purpose of making this problem visible with the intention of raising user awareness. To this end, a space has been created in which the user must interact with the installation. This small space is made with the intention of transmitting an overwhelming and claustrophobic sensation, so translucent yellow polycarbonate walls have been used to transport censorship in a physical environment, making it diffi- cult to see the inside of the installation from the outside. During the interaction, the user must perform a search and move away the information tabs that obscure the answer to their search.
Tab.net offers a solution to the problem of overinformation by making it clearly visible and teaching the user not to fight the inevitable, but to make it visible.
