Located in the National Kaohsiung University of Science and Technology (First Campus), Barcode Jungle is the winner of The First Public Art Award (category: Best Creative Presentation Award). Created by artist Huang Cing-hui to complement the completion of the Library and Information Building, Barcode Jungle was inspired by linear barcodes (first-generation barcodes), and features two enlarged sets of barcodes (one in red and one in black) on the pavement to attract passerby’s attention, creating the sense of entering a digital, virtual space.
Additionally, the linear feature of barcodes was utilized in the design of bicycle stands that enable this installation to serve as a means of visual enjoyment as well as contributing practical value, a concept that mirrors linear barcodes which remain widely used and closely related to our lives today.
榮獲第一屆公共藝術獎「最佳創意表現獎」的《條碼叢林》，座落國立高雄科技大學(第一校區)，配合當時圖書資訊大樓落成，藝術家黃清輝採用第一代條碼的「線性條碼」作為發想，將二組條碼放大呈列於走道，並以紅黑色鮮明對比，使人無法忽視，師生行走其間彷彿進入一處數位虛擬空間。
本作品更結合條碼的線條特色，設計成自行車架，讓公共藝術除了視覺享受外，也具有實用功能，如同至今仍廣泛運用於日常中的線性條碼，與我們的生活息息相關。
