A memorial of Q

How to create a music video which is interpreted by and derived from the audience instead of the director or music producer?

PMV, a personalized music video, can achieve this by monitoring the subtle changes in brain waves of the audience while listening to the song. Upon wearing the specialized headphone, the brain waves of the audience is recorded and transformed into data, thus controlling the sequences and special effects of the music video. This experience is diverse and unique and the music video which is “created” by the audience can be shared among friends via the social media.

This is an interactive video installation in which the audience engage in the interactions with the characters in a series of short stories and scenarios with their own mobile phones.

The scenarios in this project are based on the everyday usage of mobile phones. How do people use their phones? When will they use it? What consequences will they have when a phone rings? The audience can call or answer phone calls from the characters in the videos. Picking the phone or ringing the characters at different times will affect the ending or outcome of the video.

Textworm is an interactive installation which experiments on deconstruction of text. Game Play

Have you ever been forced to enter a “maze” when you can make no other choices in your life?

When you are lost, you feel contemptible, fearful, confused, worried, frustrated, and at last losing your soul and suffocates.

This moment, the hardest person you are facing is indeed yourself. You betray yourself, you distrust yourself, you disrespect yourself…..to walk out of the maze, you have to face your true self and destroy the obstacle inside you.

You are the only person that controls your own future.

This is a story about a long distance relationship between a mother and her son.

The film reflects on his changing relationship with his mother when he leaves Hong Kong to start his new life in a new country, leaving mum behind and lots of wonderful memories.

“My lovely neighbor Tom” is the title of this movie. The word Tom is referring to “Peeping Tom” often associated with voyeurism.

If you’re associating voyeurism with sex and nudity I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed because this movie does not contain one single frame of sex or nudity, it’s only about BLOOD and VIOLENCE.

On the 35th floor of the Carter Building lived an upper class family of 4 (Father, Mother, Son & Daughter). Not long after the son’s 7th birthday something terrible happened and since that day the kids have been living by themselves in the flat.

Losheng Sanatorium, Taiwan’s only isolated hospital for leprosy patients. In the past, due to the lack of medical advancements and social panic, Taiwan government forced 1,000 patients into isolation. This condition lasted through the colonial government, the National government, the reformed democratic government. For 50 to 60 years, the patients have made Losheng their home, enduring a loss of their rights, and slowly fading from the society’s notice.

Now, they seemed to have walked out of their past, and into society. Yet, with the construction of the Hsin-Zhuang MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) works, the government has once again forced 300 aged patients to move out of LoSheng, tearing it down for the purpose of economic benefits. In the face of authority, the patients persevere in life, voicing out for their homeland.

First: Laughter has aroused my curiosity on emotions. Second: I want it, I want to get out!

Third: So, that’s it? Fourth: Right or wrong, meaningful or not, see you at the stop!

Two women and a man in cinematic dance,
Subtle emotions and hidden desires,
Revealing truth and deadly beauty.

Exodus deals with the unspoken nuances of human emotions. An encounter between a lower-class ethnic Chinese shampoo girl and a Javanese court dancer sparks an awakening that manifests the dialectic of obsession and the transient nature of human affection. Set against the backdrop of the dominant Javanese culture, this story deals with the aspirations and identity of two women, each gambling for a better life in a post-Suharto era.

Walking in our shoes everyday
What do you see beyond them
Have you ever heard of
The stories of shoes

Wear the same shoes
Pass the same places and
Encounter the same faces
Day after day
Where has your mind sailed

The city grows
With the rhythm of our pace
Fragments of forgotten memories
Sketch the stories of
Urban landscape

a video that is structured like a triangle,

repeating and broken and connected

the relationship between daughter and

mother is like a triangle?

The story of the mermaid is nothing but a tragedy.

In the fairy tale, the prince saves the mermaid from the coast. Then the mermaid, the prince and the princess lapse into a triangle relationship. The princess believes the love of the prince will return to her when the mermaid is gone. Actually, nothing remains the same.

Keep running, running and running every day.

Finally, we even forget what we are chasing.

Take a breath, take a rest.

A layer of colour, a slide of film

A piece of paper, a movie scene

Prime

White, painter, black

Between black and white

A Red spring

A Green summer

A Blue autumn

A nightmare winter

Flow…

Waiting for the return of a lover

A boat came across the door

Unloaded three bags of sigh

Two bags of thinking

A bag of undischarged blast hope

Shedding tears torms an ocean

Swim in your arms

Say, “it is time to come home”

There is not always peace and love between a son and a mom.

I love = I hate you = I kill you

Life is short.

But hatred is forever.

At least, it may last for more than 1,000 years.

Do boys and girls release a secret and attractive power? If the answer is yes, where does this power come from? They are as beautiful as fairies. Because of them, people are confused about whether it is right or wrong to love them. How do we explain this?

No feedback.

In this story, if the boy, the main character, tends to love the same sex, and also the girl, another main character, has a fairy body, do we long for entering their realm?

Dangerous.

There is merely one reason to explain. It is because there is “Beauty.” This is one of the important human elements that human require. This “Beauty” comes from everybody’s heart. There are different definitions of “Beauty” in different people’s hearts. Actually, this “Beauty” includes beauty and ugliness, love and hate. All these are just means to achieve the satisfaction of the human spirit.

The word “director” is becoming more prestigious and romanticized. Knowing that someone has made some sort of movies, we would like to greet him/ her “Director!” or ask “When can I star in your movie?”… It is pretty fun indeed. However, if taking it seriously, why do I make movies (create)?

I believe good art is such that after it is “penetrated through” (It is “penetrated through” but not “separated from”) all the artistic judgment, something good remains.

What is the thing that remains?

Goodness.

In Chinese, the word “goodness” always comes after “truthfulness” and before “beauty”. I would say, “goodness is truthful, it brings along with it the gift, beauty.”

A good movie should make you see the landscape in the midst of life.
