Sense Error: An Experiment on Machine Perception
感官错误：一次关于机器感知的实验
This project is a sensory co-creation experiment with AI. Together, we set three progressive goals—from everyday sensations to contradictory perceptions, and finally to cross-sensory imagination. Through dialogues of keywords, image generation, and iterative revisions, we explored the question of machine perception. The experiment revealed the boundaries of AI’s sensory logic: it can imitate feeling, yet remains confined by social conventions and experiential norms, rejecting irrational combinations and sensory contradictions. The work reflects on a larger question—when algorithms define what is reasonable to feel, how free can human sensory imagination still be?

Backstage Hack: A 6-Month Open Practice Generating "A Fool's Paradise
痴人造梦：一个生成「痴人说梦」的六个月开放实践
This project consists of a “parent work” and a “generated work”:
a long-duration open studio performance Backstage Hack, and the interactive installation A Fool’s Paradise that emerged from it.
On this site, artists are creating a voice-light interaction theatre piece called “A fool’s paradise”. As an audience, you could stay outside and observe what’s happening in the space through one-way mirrors and headphones, or go visit the inside and take an action to experience the voice-light interaction in the first created Unit, No.13.
The process is a performance.
