“Wandering in 4101”，本創作專案以挖掘地方文化為出發，在研究生留學澳洲布里斯本的時間內，深刻感受到身為一個外來客，留學生，旅人，甚至到真正享受自己生活在這片土地的轉變。本論文認為對於觀光，是可以從更深入的角度切入，不只是留在旅人回憶裡，更要讓在地居民了解時間積累的地方故事。
本論文以布里斯本的West End 為論文創作靈感，4101 是West End 的郵遞區號，希望旅者能夠漫步在West End，用徒步的方式探索文化。地方和人一樣，都擁有自己的個性，散發自己的魅力，West End 像座遺落的孤島，從多樣的外來移民漸漸成為城市發展仕紳化的文化特區，West End 歷經了轉變的過程，充滿了時間積累的故事，本論文以孤島為象徵發展地方觀光智能手機應用程式，利用擴增實境與適地性服務功能增加使用者互動性，讓使用者藉由遊戲化的方式蒐集地方故事進而了解在地文化。
創作的本身就是一個不斷產生與毀滅的過程，從創作理念，文獻探討到一步一步紀錄創作過程，本論文希望能夠藉此紀錄與了解創作者的創作研究的意念發想到設計實踐，結論則為研究的創作成果與個人未來創作之期許。 This project is based on the international academic collaboration of Tamkang University and Queensland University of Technology.

This project takes advantage of West End, where is a unique suburb in Brisbane, Queensland. 4101 is the official postal code, and as the name implied, this project hope the users can explore the specialty of the special suburb through their feet. Places are like people. Both of them have personality. West End has the ample history of immigration, and it makes the place like an isolated island. The project uses the island as a metaphor inspiration to memorize the revolution process through local stories. The final outcome is the tourism application by the help of the augmented reality and location-based service to make the city alive.
