Fishing Cube by Lu Lyu

I want to put the experience of fishing into a small box. As I move slowly and gently in such a tiny box, a feeling about a bigger space of leisure and peace lies in this box.

Dying for Attention Cube by Rae Ruilin Huang

What if a cube has a personality of a 3-year-old?

With this thought in mind, I made a cube that responds and reacts to human's touches. The cube has hair sticking up and when you touches it, depends on direction, it will run towards or away from you. If you didn't touch the hair in the right way, it will shake its body dramatically to show repulsion. If you leave it along for too long, every few seconds it will move one step forward cautiously. By the time you realize, it has probably run to a corner far away from you.

Noise and lulu's dream

I am using the noise data outside my window at night to visualize how reality is being reboardcasted into my dream.

I never dream when I first come to new york. New York is noisy. However, during this time, the noise outside seems to be the most accessible reality of the outside world. By capturing data of the noises outside my window, I start to see my sleep is a combination of reality and my dream. So I am trying to visualize it.
