SHI DANQING, "Cinderella Lunar Mission: Everyone Has a Chance to Set Foot on the Moon", Leonardo, Vol.43, n°3, pp. 218-222, 2010, Cambridge, MIT Press
The author compares the original story of Cinderella with the modern fairy tale created by the news media in covering the Apollo Program. This compariston builds the basis for the design of Cinderella Lunar Mission, a pseudo-lunar mission consisting, variously, of an installation, fake news reports, a lunar mission network game and real-world action www.cinderellalunarmission.com. Inspired by Cinderella's glass slipper, the exclusive sign of her identity, Cinderella Lunar Mission examines the idea of shifting identity and ways of fabricating new fairy tales using such digital technologies as progammatic text, network games and barcode identification.
