"Quantum of Time Inside Light" is an AudioVisual work created for immersive spatial experience, located in the U108 special exhibition space of the National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts. The work consists of a 14-meter diameter ground projection and a 360° circular projection space, along with spatial audio design, creating an infinite space-like experience for participants.
The artist employs principles of quantum mechanics from physics to elucidate the behavior and characteristics of time in the universe. By depicting the uncertainty and non-linear states of time through the behavior and changes of light, the work combines the characteristics of particle motion with the concept of time to create visual elements that correspond to time expansion, compression, and extension. In addition, the spatial audio design allows for more possibilities in listening angles, enabling the audience to perceive subtle changes in time and explore the expansion of sensory dimensions through visual and auditory experiences.
The work focuses on the nature of time and its impact on human perception. By creating a multi-dimensional space that challenges linear concepts, the artist invites the audience to contemplate how time affects their understanding of reality. By extending through sound and vision in space, the audience is invited to experience time in a more dynamic and sensory way, enveloped in a sensory audiovisual experience that unfolds like branches, expanding beyond the constraints of linear time frameworks.

AudioVisual Live performance / Sound art
“Folding Harmonies” has unique properties in three-dimensional space, and it is these properties that provide the basis for the Folded Harmony experience. The creative process involves a dialogue between light and shadow, allowing the interplay between them to produce an array of textures. The sound waves then define the relationship between the space and the soundscape, creating a harmonious union between the visual and the auditory.
Folding Harmonies experience presents a new and exciting way to explore the relationship between sound and space, by creating a visual representation of sound waves and their corresponding light and shadow textures. The detailed and nuanced variations in sound are projected into the visual realm, revealing the intricate connection between sound and light.

Sound Installation
acrylic, rise paper, iron structure, drivers, copper pillars, amplifier module, Mac mini, audio interface, DC power supply.
For thousands of years, paper has been a medium to document human history and civilization. Its invention was a huge technological leap that allowed us to keep our memories alive. However, with the emergence of new media, our knowledge structure has expanded to the margins of the universe. This expansion has resulted in the neglect of significant pieces of information that we fail to digest in a timely manner.
Nowadays, our eyes are glued to various screens that offer us a multitude of messages that we enjoy in our daily lives. This rapid flow of information can lead to superficial thinking, and we may not realize the emptiness and shallowness of our thinking until the effects of this stimulus wear off.
When we continue to look at paper, we may gradually lose our focus and become alienated from its elegance and historicity as a carrier of human civilization. To challenge the dominance of vision, I attempt to transform media into a kind of materiality by using physical vibrations. Through the sound field created by the installation, I blend the memories of real-life experiences into the work. I hope this installation, combined with the delicate and translucent texture of paper, will have an alternative resonance for the viewers.

Sound Installation
Through sound, we can perceive space. Sound is not only a medium for transmitting messages, but also a way for us to perceive spatial relationships. In this work, by recognizing and transforming the location of sound in space, the audience can experience different sound effects and feel the relationship between themselves and space.
"Where" uses rice paper as the basis for a sound installation and is positioned in space with an exploratory attitude. The audience can hear the sound of the paper vibrating, and through reconstructing the auditory experience, they can more deeply experience the imagination extended by hearing, or evoke a comparison in memory.
Through the slow transformation of the mechanism of the installation, between left and right, movement and stillness, the audience can better determine their own position. The reverberation in space is the most straightforward description of sound in space, and the installation continuously assembles and disassembles the relationship between sound space and individual auditory experience.

Sound Installation / Wave field synthesis
Aluminum structure, electric wood board, speaker driver, Dante amplifier, giga router, power supply.
This is a sound system research project supported by "C-Lab Creators Creative Research and Development Program". It focuses on the personal creative works developed in the past. The project takes the human voice as the starting point, extending from the personal experience of using a mobile phone to broadcast sound, and combining the experience of secretly listening to the body. By using sound projection technology in space, it reinterprets a "fully open and private listening experience".
