ALIVE GRAVESTONE
This project is an AR design by showing showing a new process when people stay in front of the gravestone and pay homage to the death, showing of visual by AR technology for digging into the imagination of death.
Personal Project
Developed by unity, processing and touchdesigner.
connect with someone you lost in the world ?
How could you Design Thought
I am going to use technology of AR to reduce the pain of peope whose family or friends passed away. It will show the interaction between alive persons with person who dead, so that gives them comfort. The interaction will be designed through the wish of people who passed away. worshipper will interact with the device to arouse and prolong their memories , and convey wishes of the dead
1.8 persons/second died in this world
There is at least one family is facing death. death is not far from us, we need to think more about it.
There are over 1 billion people is running out of places to bury the roughly 10 million who die there every year.
For people who lost their family or friends forever in this world they need comfort and response. Buffering some of their complicated emotions is necessary. For the people who already passed away, the design can prolong the memory of the decease by the worshippers, thus prolonging their existence in the world.

COMMUNICATION
This project is an interactional installation performance showing three stages of people’s communication. It records the sounds of communication and visualization of sound, digging into people s inner states.
Personal Project
Developed by Touchdesigner and wood installation
INSPIRATION DESIGN CONCEPT
Paul Levinson published article named " Human Reply : A Theory of the Evolution of Media" He wrote about there are three stages of evolution. Stage on is Technology as Toy. He believes that the initial stage of any media technology is in the form of toys. And then it turn as a Mirror of reality. The final stage is Midwife to Art.
Stage on is Technology as Toy. He believes that the initial stage of any media technology is in the form of toys, "When media swagger into society, most of them appear in the form of toys, they are mostly gadgets, and people like them because they are fun. ”
Lots of time I feel like communication in my life sometimes not working. This proj ect is going to focus on communication. I think people have three stages in com munication, toys, mirrors, and night lights.
Media
In the first toy stage, people are always eager to be seen and accepted by more people in the quickest and most eye-catching way through appearance, like a toy.
The final stage is the night light. At that stage, people can embrace all the differences, but at the same time, it also keeps their own ideas.
Stage two is Technology as a Mirror of reality. As the literal name shows, stage two is much more focused on reflecting reality. The content will be much more focused on the audience.
In the mirror stage, people are in a stable system. What they need is mutual sympathy. They are constantly looking for those compatriots who are recognized and recognized by themselves. But they always ignore others’ words and only focus on the parts that they are interested in.
Mirror
The third stage is Midwife to Art. The ability to abstract and reconstruct reality using established technology became a kind of popular art, reaching the highest stage of media evolution.
Toy

1.Toy Toy
2.Mirror Mirror
3.Night light Night light
RESEARCH
I do some research for each of the stage to support the way I thought. There is going to happen different news or some psychological, philo sophical ideas in different stages.
SENSE OF BELONGING: The emotional need of people to want to be accepted as part of a relationship or group, and the desire to be affirmed and valued as the authentic self in a relationship or group.
Main Elements for meet this feeling
Feel Safe
Certain Similarity
Emotional Connection
Able to Participate
Recognized and Be Recognized
On June 17 2022, a student at Zhengzhou University in Henan province(China 120 because of a headache. The caller de layed the best rescue time by saying heard like very sober, I don't think you need an ambulance" The ambulance was late on the spot, resulting in her death.
One student died due to operator's opinionated and selfish de cisions. People always want to hear what they want to hear, while ignoring what they don't agree with or understand
Night light
sciousnes we will not get "gazing" .So actually the final thing that we need to do to become a night light is make change of ourself, so that people can do more and more change like us.
In these three stages of progression, people have different needs at different stages, and different problems will arise in communication. The best ideal stage is the third stage, where people can eventually become more and more broad-minded and communicate more and more effectively and meaningfully because of their insistence on their own views and their tolerance of others' views.

Performing is going to be splited in three different stage with the installation is with three stages of communication. At the TOY stage people can see each other who are pretending as a toy.
At Night Light stage The device will visualized their voices and show on the board, they can clearly see both of their voices on the board to pay more attention on each other.
AT MIRROR stage, they can only see themselves because people who in this stage only focus on what they say and what they want to hear.

GRABING THE MAIN INF RMATI N FR M THIS AGE
Living in the information Age, we can get the information we want very quickly and effortlessly, and everything we do is more efficient and convenient. The advancement of technology help us to get rid of the monotony of life. And everyone get more ways to socialize and have fun. We can see more and wider information immediately than before which strongly changed and broaden our horizons.
It is just like swimming in a pool full of information while we living in the information age. At first, we were really interested in that and feel happy, but after swimming for a bunch of time, many problems will occur. There are many meidas to obtain information, and how do people face such a large amount of information everyday?
In 2022, Social networking sites are estimated to reach 3.96 billion users and these figures are still expected to grow as mobile device usage and mobile social networks increasingly gain traction in previously underserved markets. Tweets are sent everyday

Data produced by a connected car
Our lifestyle changed these years, information is everywhere. With billions of information every day, is there any standard for posting information? How much information influneced us or which is useful for us everyday?
I always spend a long time on the internet but couldn’t receive any ef fective information. What information are we receiving every day?
Fragmented information gradually weakens our cognition and capabilities
Reduce the quality of shortened information
“How to live in this information age” become the main topic we often discuss, but I don’t quite agree with the word live I always use survive to ask this question. I tried lots of times to get rid of the internet, but I quit many times, and start a cycle like this. I always get lost in this cycle.
Breed thinking inertia and behavioral stereotypes
Easily influenced by various information media such as information culture and media, and enter the misunderstanding of values
Due to more and more competition occur in the internet through low standard management invalid information becomes more and more
It always has no positive impact for you long-term developement
The logic and analysis behind the information is wrong.
Information repeat what people already read
Signs always provide important information which is correct and clear for us to get to the destination.
I think the internet world is not a straight road for us to walk, it is like a winding path that has many forks, and people always get lost in it with different information.

The road infront of your eyes are not that simple, in this complex room design, you need to find the true exit.
I want to express in the most simple and uncomplicated way that we are inevitably immersed in this false information, fragmented information, and invalid information every day. And through the design of the game, players will find that this information brings them distraction and irritation in the game, and can not get rid of it. Eventually, you will find that when you get rid of them, there is still some useful information but in the end you are still going in the wrong direction. FRAGMENTATION

Players enter the second room, which is marked with false directions, you need to find the real exit through these signs. If player will follow the signposts then he or she will go to a wrong exit
Filled with false complete signposts, players need to find the real exit based on their exploration.
Players enter the third room, the room is all marked with signs unrelated to the direction, you need to pass these signs to find the real game exit.

EMOTION DIGESTER MACHINE
This project is an visual interactionto show how people's emotions change during smoking, and how the device can digest the emotions that cigarettes cannot dissipate.
Personal Project
Developed by processing and touchdesigner.
HOW YOU FEEL AFTER FINISHING A CIGARRETE?
In our daily life, we always see a lot of people who smoke, and every time I see them, I wonder what is going on in their minds at the moment of smoking. Cigarette is already a consumable that we can see everywhere. It can help people de-escalate, it can be a relaxing activity, and even in the lives of young people, he has become a way to socialize.
People's demand for cigarettes is also increasing in today's society, and cigarette butts are becoming more and more common around us.
RESEARCH
Age at which smokers began smoking regularly
" Is prezztty clear there is no health benefit from filters. They are just a marketing tool. And they make it easier for people to smoke" said Thomas Novotny, a professor of public health at San Diego State University. " It is also a major contaminant, with all that plastic waste. It seems like a no-brainer to me that we can 't continue to allow this."
www.nbcnews.com news/us-news plastic-straw-ban-cigarette-butts-are-single-greatest-source-ocean-n903661
But no matter what, smoking is not the ultimate purpose of people. Why are there so many cigarette butts all over the place? What is the purpose of people smoking?
Age
18 mont hs--10 years 12000 Toxic Chemical Added Pollut ion of Cig arre t e But t N umber of Smoker
Depending on the conditions of the area the cigarette butt is discarded in, it can take 18 months to 10 years for a cigarette filter to decompose
Cellulose acetate fibers in a cigarette filter are thinner than sewing thread and a single filter contains more than 12,000 of these fibers.
Used cigarette filters are full of toxins, which can leach into the ground and waterways, damaging living organisms that come into contact with them.

Chemicals are added to cigarette paper to control the burn rate, and calcium carbonate is added as a whitener, in part to create appealing ash as the cigarette burns.
I have interview a few of my friends who often smoke. I was pretty curious their thoghts of cigarettes and also their feeling during they having a cigarette. also ask for somepeople who don t smoke and ask for their thought of cigarettes,
Through research, found that people always smoke to relieve the emotions brought by life. Every time a smoker smokes, it is like using his or her mouth to tell a piece of his or her repressed worries or sorrows. But smoking can only help them solve part of the problem, the rest can not be solved with smoke.
Getting know about own emotions
Eliminate cigarette butts
Eliminate negative emotions
Face to solve negative emotions
If there is a device that can tell your emotional image intact, and change, can help them relieve their emotions, in the end they can see their emotions during they smoking holding the cigarette. The digestion time of cigarette butts inthe real world is just like thedigestion of people's emotions that can't be dissipated by smoking, it takes a long time. want to help people relieve their emotions that remain in their bodies at the end of the cigarette by burning the cigarette buttsnd wepeople can extremely see their emotions patterns to face it. When you chose to face it you already sovled it half.

It is showing obviously that they will relax a lot when they finish half of a cigerette, but they will still feel some negative feeling such as stressful or anxiety at the end.

Why some negative bemotion will apear when a smoker almost finish a cigarette How can they deal with their final emotion
Some negative still can not be solved
STORYBOARD
Sometimes there is no way for smokers to solve their problems or emotioins. So the negative emotions always there.
Nicotine can only deal or cover these negative emotion temporarily, so it can not solve smokers emotions deeply.
The things what make them feel depressed or stressful need to disappeared they need to be solved or forgeted.
The FINAL part is using this video device to show the shape of their emotion by analyzing the smoke during

INSPIRATION
The visual design is inspired by three kinds of parts of smoking. The firing lines with the hole of paper; the ash of firing cigarettes. The smoke that smokers made during smoking. I would like to combine them together in to a complete visual design to show their visualization of emotion
PREPARATION
Processing and Touchdesigner are the main software I used for this video device. After computer analyse the smoke it will show the real-time motion of the personand also the visualization of smoke, at the end is the firing video I make.

FROZEN BORDOM
BACKGROUND
Inspir at ion
This project was inspired from my daily experience. always have a question during these years that what I was doing when was bored when I was a child living without a mobile phone. suddenly started to think more concretely about some of the reactions and thoughts of people when they are bored. So I started to digging people's boredom and what they do when they are bored.
Why we got bored
Boredom is correlated with self-control, anxiety, depression, and substance use.
Bordom
Seal boredom with WAX
Boredom is a state of failing to find meaning, which is a deeply uncomfortable feeling. Yet rather than try to escape it, throw yourself into boredom so that you can explore what might provide fulfillment to overcome it. Eastern cultures have long understood the value of embracing boredom, believing it to be a path to a higher consciousness.
Seal boredom with WAX
We search for the secrets hidden in the depths of people' s boredom and freeze all the creative elements in them.

4) Substance Use
Boredom may occur when our energy isn't channeled into an outlet that provides meaning or fulfillment. But this encompasses a few key components. One is mental arousal, having energy you want to devote to something engaging. A second is difficulty concentrating on a single task. And a third is lack of control over your surroundings, such as in a waiting room or lecture, in which you can't redirect your attention to a different activity.
Wax is always used as a method of preserving fruit and wine.The wax applied, not only reduces the moisture loss and enhances the appearance of the product by adding a bright sheen but also protects the fruits from postharvest decay which extends the shelf life. Wax prevents the product from absorbing air and bacteria into liquor while liquor is being stored.
It is not easy for people to recall their boring time, and it's not often for people to face boring without phone nowadays. did a interview for asking people several question about their bordom.
1.When will you feel bored?
2.What do you do when you’ re bored besides your phone?
3.Will You keep these things you make when you're bored?
4.Do you have any thoughts, inspirations about things or actions you do when you are bored?
As a motivator toward change, boredom can lead to new ideas, reflection, and creativity. It can fuel the search for novelty, including setting a new goal or embarking on a new adventure. In today's information-loaded world, allowing yourself to step away from screens can also help alleviate stress.

FINAL WORK
Boredom is a way of stimulating creativity. What people create unconsciously is also a work of natural beauty. Because a lot of people are afraid to face the boring, boring to bring people sense and a sense of achievement, is a kind of getting along with your own, did not dare to face to face with their emotions, so lead to now people seldom really are in a state of a kind of boring, in addition to alcohol, drugs, and some hidden diversionary products to help people to escape boredom and their emotions.
Tiktok, Instagram, social media and mobile phones account for most of people's boring moments. Perhaps fewer and fewer people experience boredom now, but boredom can also bring us energy. Just as we have meditation in the East, we specialize in finding boring times to spend time with ourselves and let ourselves be empty. Acceptance of boredom is a path to higher.
