LAST WORK ////
1.What? Why? How?
-It’s a 3 m 30 s short film called <Unattributed Stimulations of Objects> for the “happiness project” ,”the eye museum project”.
-I might say,”You make me happy.” Or I might be moved by something, in such a way that when I think of happiness I think of that thing.
-I filmed several selected objects from daily life (like bananas, shaving cream, balloon, etc.) and the procedures of how those objects are changed by human’s intervene.
2.What issues did the wok address?
Metaphors of those objects. Firstly , it was only satisfying moments, but what’s behind the happiness? It might be the very personal desire of a person for achieving his/her goals, could be sexual, violent, controlling. Objects are no more objects simply, they reflect human’s desires.
3.Relationship with my previous work?
My happiness film seems very different with my previous works. Both in content and technique. It’s my first camera film. But there’re some subtle related points between, which are the looping moments.
4.Relations to a larger context?
I watched a Youtube video during the make of the film, a guy stabbed a spongebob balloon with a stab. I realized from then that what people do to objects might reflect their potential behaviors to other people / society. It in a way describes people’s very personal and hiding desires, could be dark and twisted.

CURRENT WORK ////
1.What? Why? How?
-It’s a 7 mins looping film about my whatsapp chat history visualization. The whole film is made of 8 different films which are generated film 8 different chat histories. Moreover, it’s an abstract film. -The initial motivation that drove me to this work is the gaps between different conversations with people from different cultures. Online chats in digital age is like fast food culture (McDonald), one time gloves, you use, you ditch with no cares. You lose a chat connection, you find a new connection. However, later on, I explored more about myself, since all the whatsapp friends are my gay friends. It then somehow reflects how I enjoy , get frustrated , and put efforts to the local gay community. -I mainly use processing , writing codes to generate texts to motion graphics. In addition, I made a timetable for different chats from Jan 1st to March 11th . 70 days in total, and the length of the film is 7 mins, 420 seconds, so in the film, 6s = 1 day chat.
2.Relationship with happiness project?
It seems totally different. But similar conceptually , I’d say desire, and those desires are mainly from daily life, which are easy to be ignored but influence me everyday.
3.Difference?
a.Content: It’s more personal, more private. More like a reflection of digital culture. b.Technically: It’s a digitalized, generative and abstract film.
4.Any help?
What I still need to work on is to deep deeper meanings, find more layers. I questioned myself few questions like: Why I’m doing this? Why I’m using abstract visual? Is it necessary for viewers to understand the abstract visual represents my conversations? I’d say I would need help for the conceptual part.
5.Timetable?
Finish the complete 1st version in the middle of Aprial. What has been done: the 1st version of visual part. What still need to be done: soundtrack , and tests for more visual possibilities (different colors, speeds, rhythms, emotions).
6.Literally, it’s a changing point for myself for critical thinking, diggning deeper meanings. This work brought me struggles of critical and self doubts, self identify issues. Technically, I learned a new method of making animation, moving images.
FUTURE WORK ////
1.What it could be?
I’d like to work more on digital and abstract works.
2.What form?
Time-based work.
3.Specific forms? The basic form could be film or film installation. Additionally, I would very much like to try real performance since different forms provide different narratives and influences.
