Imagine

Artists: Hsin-Chien Huang, Wen-Chieh Chang, Yi-Chun Chang(Billy)

In a tribute to John Lennon’s song “Imagine,” dancers embody peace amid turmoil, reflecting on the 2023 Russo-Ukrainian War, Israel-Palestine conflict, and Taiwan Strait tensions. One dancer wears a mocap suit, another uses Vive 3D Trackers, and a wheelchair dancer incorporates a heartbeat sensor, seamlessly merging technology with their movements. Online participants join the performance, amplifying messages of love and anti-war sentiments, echoing the dancers’ heartfelt hope for world peace.

Heartbreak Funeral Service

Artists: Mei-Chen Guo, Szu-Chi Chen, Chi-An Chen, Kun-Yi Hsiao

The deeply invested love, filled with genuine emotions, is abruptly severed in an instant. The negative energy that comes instantaneously often suffocates. To aid those after a breakup, a forty-nine-day ritual is crafted, following the tradition from Eastern funeral rites—’7 days * 7 weeks = 49 days,’ a continuation of its characteristic duration.
Accompanied by an AI assistant to help them walk out of their pain.

Future Morphoid : A Cozy Afternoon in Taipei

Artists: TECHARTGROUP INC, FEASTOGETHER CORPORATION

Through this installation, our aim is for visitors to have a glimpse of the different facets of everyday life in Taiwan.
It can be intense and dangerous from the outside, but at the same time relaxing and joyful from the inside. With the display of Taiwanese food as a museum treasure, our aim is to give people a new perspective on Taiwanese everyday life and culture – which could act even as a cultural bridge.
