interactive performance with integration of digital humans, 2022
photo: a lonely public show, no human audiences, all presences are machines, all types of devices that would suggest the presence of real people.
Synopsis
During my learning and research process of digital human technology, I realized that these digital humans could be a perfect cue to notify my audiences that they may also be monitored like those digital people. And according to many facts, it is highly possible that, in the dictator's supercomputer center, every Chinese has already been coded and calculated into a unique digital twin based on their personal data collected constantly without any permission. The government monitors and overrides our thoughts and behaviors through those digital twins, just like we can override a digital human through a simple phone application.
In short, this work wants to experiment and make use of the recent digital human tool to call people's attention to protecting their data privacy.
