Guo Guo | 5m11s | 2017
​The sound of Long-horned grasshopper(Guo Guo) was like the sound of ("kingdom"). Before the end of the Qing Dynasty, Guo Guo was breed only for the emperor as his secret toys.

Painting Collapsing | 7m47s | 2015
Was there a painting that can be appreciated by intelligent beings from both dimensions? To answered the question, the film first showed us how the 2D beings sense the 2D world. They used some kind of energy wave to "watch" (scan), it's called "Horizon Flow". Later, this film used 3D animation to show the scene of a 3D object A is falling into a 2D plane. Elements from object A would spread in the X Y plane and the differences in Z-axis would have to be converted into the language of X Y, that the different elements can not be connected. In the logic of the 2D world, two different elements can not be connected. If connected, it must be a single element. They could not have overlap either, overlapping implied the existence of a Z-axis. So far, the film came to a conclusion, to make a painting appreciated by both dimensions, the painting could be painted with only one layer of paint with rich elements and spaced apart.​

i am your voices | 7m | 2015 
I filmed a series of urban scenes which was less urban, and then used the sound (mad dogs, birds, insects, windy leaves, flies globs) in that scene to drive the growth of a digital object, then blended that object into the scene that generates it. At last, I muted the sound of the video,  because the sound is already in it.
