Mutual generation, mutual restraint
Mutual generation, mutual restraint
This project explores the intersection of digital culture and the physical realm, probing
its impact on diasporic cultural identity in the Western context. Guided by Taoist
philosophy, it employs Mutual Generation and Mutual Restraint to study data
frequencies, shaping the symbolic meaning of individual and societal information
bodies. Experimentation in Rotterdam and Chengdu focuses on fragmented
self-identity within digital nomadism, utilizing field recording and 3D scanning. The
exploration delves into information flow dynamics, guiding the reconstruction of
culturally rooted field recordings into an interactive video installation. Collaborating
with a sound group, the project embraces audio-visual performance, symbolizing data
frequencies. Presented at "Neck of the Woods" in Rotterdam from January 25 to
February 24, 2024, coinciding with Art Week Rotterdam.
Driven by dual exploration, the project delves into Chinese diaspora history,
organizing fragmented self-identity within digital culture and Western post-colonial
discourse. Reintegrating data into cultural contexts, it emphasizes emotional impact.
Focused on narratives through data-generated images and sound, the project aims
for emotional and immersive experiences, connecting with audiences interested in
digital publishing, multicultural narratives, and diverse perspectives. Invitations extend
to engage with the proposed narrative and methodologies, forming a foundational
base for future art practice
