Line of flight and
Mindfulness
Mindfulness is the psychological process of
bringing one's attention to experiences occurring in the present moment.
In this experience, we used the Five-Aggregate Model of the Mind in mindfulness to activate the ability to control attention.
Line of flight (French: ligne de fuite) is a concept developed by Gilles Deleuze and used extensively in his work with Félix Guattari, which emphasizes how things connect rather than how they 'are', and tendencies that could evolve in creative mutations rather than a 'reality' that is an inversion of the past. Also, everyone has such a line of light - the opposite of giving up and submissive, a new kind of happiness. In this experiment, we inspire people to find their flight line by breaking the segments.

The BACKGROUND of Cosmic String
Zen Buddhism
Zen Buddhism
I come from an Eastern family. I learned Taiji boxing and meditation from my grandfather when I was young. I learned Chinese painting from famous painters, then I knew about
multi-religious culture.
In Zen Buddhism, it is explained as follows: human beings feel life all the time and live a very uncomfortable life. The main reason is that we are trapped by the inherent thought, and rationality has become the basis of people’s survival. Because traditional religions have various connections with the universe, I want to draw inspiration and methods from religious culture and philosophy to express the theme of cosmic strings.

The Quantum Consciousness
Quantum consciousness is not summed up in science.It is experiential, unrepeatable and unverifiable. The phenomenon is that human beings cannot clearly distinguish between what is subjective and what is objective.
The Chinese Link
I usually practice painting when I am alone, so that I can think better.When I draw, my hands and heart are directly connected, so what I draw can better reflect my original intention.
Drawing is a habit that I have developed since I was a child. It can make my mood more calm, so that I can better meditate, brew and explore my inner world.
In this age of information fragmentation, time and space exist in parallel and at the same time are contradictory. In the future, the development of scientific art and scientific art will be irresistible. This work describes my exploration of the interdisciplinary experimental development of time and space, life, science and religion

The
Storyboard and Transfer of Cosmic String
Storyboard 1: the high-tech metal optical frame is suspended on the face of the Buddha (without any carrier), and there is a buddhist hand on the upper right to deliver eye drops.
Storyboard 2: the buddhist hand breaks apart the wormhole/black hole, and then the light shines into the picture in order to explore if time has the direction and holes.
Storyboard 3: the picture stretches out a positive buddhist hand (slowly open or directly open hand) and holds up a child -- the buddhist hand is turned over to the reverse space later. In the process of movement, the child turns into an old man or Buddha. At this time, the gesture is opposite. (Positive space: small - big - old - dead. Reverse-space: old - big - small – dead.
Storyboard 4: when the child becomes an old man. As the hand moves from the front to the back, setting the camera’s lights to dim, and then the child becomes old. The dynamic of the transition ends with the child spinning above the old man’s shoulders.
Storyboard 5: space-time collapses, and two black holes (stars collapse) devour each other. Part of the Buddha’s face collapses (rendering material: tinted metal), replacing the head with the Buddha’s face.
Storyboard 6: deconstruction of eight words of “parallel universe, multidimensional space”, eight pages of 3D sketches.
Storyboard 7: after the conversion of eight words, there appeared a close-up of the face, mainly the Buddha’s eye (top view!). And then zoom in and out -- zoom in behind eyes -- and the big picture of the Buddha’s eyes is two hands in the air
End shot: surreal scene -- hands and metal rings are rotating -- hands and rings gradually become smaller and farther away until they disappear, leaving only one point -- black screen.

The
Planar Space of Cosmic String
Multiple images (only with height and width) are placed in the picture parallel to the picture. There is no distance between the images, no thickness between the images, and the space surrounding these images has no depth. Such space form is called planar space, also known as two-dimensional planar space. Planar space is the simplest among various spatial forms, and its existence condition must be reflected by the gap between the forms. Modeling elements and spatial elements in the picture are expressed in the language form of plane, so the planar spatial relationship appears to be very simple and strong.
The
Hallucinatory Space of Cosmic String
Hallucinatory space refers to that the object is in the picture but not parallel to the picture. It has a three-dimensional sense of height, width and thickness. In the graphic design, it is the hallucinatory space, also known as the three-dimensional space. It shows the three-dimensional relationship between length, width and height. In the hallucinatory space, the objects are far or near, before or behind so that a sense of depth can be felt.
1. Use the size difference of shape to express the sense of space. The size of the same image, due to the distance and proximity of different sizes of feeling, the large object feels close to us, the small object feels far from us. It forms a sense of distance between shapes, which also reflects the depth of space in the picture. 2. Use the form of the interval density expression of space sense.
The variation of density between small shapes or lines can create a sense of space. The greater the spacing, the closer it feels to us, and the smaller the spacing, the farther it feels to us. There is a sense of undulating spatial distance. 3. The surface of the transition can show the sense of space.
A plane with no turning is only a representation of two-dimensional space in the plane composition. Once there is a turning relationship of the plane, the image will have a three-dimensional effect of height, width and thickness in the picture. We can also use curve, broken lines and their repeated arrangements to form half-stereo space levels.

The
Theory on Design
The separation, encounter, penetration, union, reduction, difference and overlapping of forms can represent planar space. However, the overlapping of forms reflects the front and rear or upper and lower relations between forms, with spatial depth, which is the expression of three-dimensional space.
As the line of sight shifts back and forth between the graph and the bottom, the meaning of the graph and the bottom also changes accordingly. When the original graph retires to become the bottom, the original bottom suddenly becomes the graph. The repeated transformation between the graph and the bottom makes the representation of planar space in the picture have double meanings. When a graph is the same size as a base, positions are contested, resulting in an endless cycle of uncertainty, volatility, and shifting between the two. The dynamic feeling and interest brought by the transformation of the bottom of the picture make the planar space show unpredictable spatial effect, enhance the readability of the picture, add interest and mystery to the work, and strengthen visual communication.

How to Subversion Cognitive Concepts
The combination of art and technology can clearly lead to the future.
Art can switch freely between reality and fantasy, free from thought and ethics. However, science is in a relatively stable and orderly normal state in the universe. The two are very different and inseparable. There must be paranormal phenomena in the universe. What is called paranormal phenomenon by people? Those strange phenomena that cannot be explained by science are called paranormal phenomena. When people can’t explain paranormal phenomena with science, art develops boundless ability. Art can reveal cracks in things and turn the reliability of matter into a surreal blur.

The Background of Sliver Mirror
The design of Silver
Mirror was inspired by my observation and reflection of life.
Aluminum foil can be seen everywhere in our life, such as: storage beef, aircraft meals, cigarette packages, etc. Being fuzzy, fragile, and rich in folded changes, metallic luster reflectance is its major characteristic.

The Material Comparison
Mirror: non-friable reflective material with smooth
surface and hard texture.
Tinfoil: handicraft products with soft texture and good insulation that generally can be independently layered, folded and distorted.
Aluminium foil: thermo-printing material with hard and smooth texture. Generally, it’s brushed in the paper and easy to be oxidized. Therefore, it cannot be preserved for a long time.

A
Thingking
and Meditation
W
hen people look at the aluminum foil, they can see distorted shapes and
blurred images. It is like looking into a mirror with a vague feeling of their
own existence.
It is like yearning, doubt and even fear towards the unknown future. Then, I
designed it as a symbol of the future based on the rich fold changes and fuzzy
visual effects of the tin foil. Can we really read pages made of only
0.006-0.3mm aluminum foil paper? What kind of content can form contradictory
contrast with the icy texture? Can this form of reading be seen as a
conversation with the unknown?
The Experimental Practice of Sliver Mirror
I combined edible
aluminum foil paper and 120g coated paper as the carrier of tin foil. In terms
of content, I quoted the surrealist and romantic poetry, including the French
surrealist poet Paul Éluard's work: "I make you as great as my
loneliness". I engraved the words by intaglio. The deliverable is a
non-binding concept book that can be flipped or folded at will.
The Carrier of Sliver Mirror
The
most representative poet I chose is Robert Bly, the primary champion and representative
poet of “New Surrealism” (which
is also known as “Deep Imagism”) in the United States in the 1960s and 1970s. He took
life as poem and poem as life, and his passion towards poem never faded. He
tried to break free from poetic rhymes while maintaining the mind of justice.

The Main Purpose of Sliver Mirror
The rich wrinkles and
vague visual effects of tinfoil are deeply rooted in my mind, and I use it as a
symbol of the future. Then I incorporated in this mirror material, the opposite
of clear and romantic surrealist poetry.
The Creative Idea
Based on
the rich folds and fuzzy visual effects of the tin foil, I made it as a symbol
of the future. I then incorporated the sprightly romantic surrealist poetry
into this mirrored material as opposed to its physical features.
Embrace solitude with patience
Reclusion is a kind of spiritual training.
In this age of alienation, a surprising problem is the lack of necessary loneliness.
However, every life is exploring how to find a balance in it, and solitude is a way of reclusion. This video work expresses my understanding and exploration of the power of poetic loneliness and reclusion.

information graphic design
Everyone should have a clear lifeline. Therefore, I tried to represent the spirit of the salmon with infographics. The investigation on salmon is carried based on the clue of time: fertilization- hatching- juvenile fish– adult fish- adventure- migration- oviposition- death, as well as how each process occurs and the time it takes. The research covers other information including salmon classification, geographic distribution of different salmons, analysis of nutrition contained in the fish meat, comparison of quantity propagated between wild and cultured salmons, the danger they face during migration, etc.
The whole creation process made me fully comprehend that I should enrich my life. Life means more than survival. I must go through the nature, humanism, science and technology, society and history. Although everyone has his own mission, yet in an ultimate sense, their missions are same, that is, strive for further development. After completing the infographic, I think life can be concluded with three words: experience, exploration and sublimation. That’s because the motivation of all the creation comes from my inner desire.

The Background of
The Life of Salmon
There is a clear
lifeline spanning the life cycle of the salmon: they grow regardless of all
hardships; they experience and swim from the calm lake to the sea despite the unpredictable
dangers to complete all stages of life; they fulfill their mission and return
to their birthplace to reproduce despite difficulties even at the cost of life.
The lifeline makes the life of a salmon magnificent.
The life of a salmon is amazing as it is full of danger and solemnness. They overcome all kinds of difficulties, avoid countless dangers, and in the last moment of life, swim against the tide to lay eggs in their birth place even if this means death. Maybe it is driven by genetics instead of a self-motivated awareness. But in the eyes of humans, it is still moving, inspirational and thought-provoking.

Maybe it is driven by genetics instead of a self-motivated awareness. But in the eyes of humans, it is still moving, inspirational and thought-provoking.
The Experience of Salmon
Experience: no matter how hard it is, the
salmon has to swim to the rough sea to go through the different stages of life.
Mission: no matter how dangerous it is, it has to swim back to the birth place
to reproduce, even at the cost of its life. The most magnificent moment is when
the river is roaring, but they cannot stop to eat anything but desperately swim
upwards. Once they stop, they will be washed away by the roaring river. Thus,
the only way is to swim upwards all the time. Their body turn red when they arrive
at the destination, because they have exhausted their strengths.
The Creative Thinking of The Life of Salmon
We strive to grow
up to be mature at whatever cost. For the sake of maturity, we should
experience nature, humanities, society and history to make our life perfect.
More importantly, we need a sense of mission and we should live not only for
survival. There is a mission behind our life. Although the missions seem to be
different for different people, yet they should be the same in an ultimate
sense, that is, we strive to build a more harmonious and wonderful world for
ourselves and future generations. In real life, too many people have ignored
the importance of maturity so that they become lazy, mediocre and boring. Too
many people have ignored the importance of experience so that they become
timid, narrow-minded and stubborn. Too many people have left their mission
behind so that they become weak, confused and lost.
The Life of Salmon
There used to be a
lot of salmons in Northeast China, In the early days after the founding of the
People's Republic of China, there still were. Canada's environmental protection
is good, but in the past few years, salmon have not migrated to their birth
place for two or three years in a row. The Canadian government was panic and
asked experts to investigate, but there has been no result. Salmons migrated
again last year, so people breathed a sigh of relief. I would estimate that.
Canadian salmons swim as far as the north of the sea of Japan and the south of
the Bering sea. The fishing amount of nearby countries is extremely large. Two
or three years without salmon migration means that the salmons for that period are
extinct. I really hope that humans can have a regular rest for fishing and let
them grow.
What I learned from The Life of Salmon
People should make
life more mature by experiencing nature, humanity, society and history. They need a sense of mission. Everyone has a different mission, but in the ultimate
sense, their missions are the same: to live a better life in the harmonious
natural world.
Could the numerous people who watch this work get an inspiration from the salmons and think of their own destiny?
