Luminous Island

Luminous Island is a light art exhibition held in Penghu, Taiwan. The theme is the ocean world of Penghu in autumn and winter. Thirteen light art installations are inspired by marine creatures. The lanterns combine fabric with small LED lights, instead of the usual iron and fabric structure. Fiber optics are used to shape a marine kingdom, and mechanical parts allow some lanterns to open and close. Corridors at the entrance and the exit form the feeling of entering and leaving an underwater world. Rust-proof and corrosion-resistant materials protect the lanterns near the sea.

ReCollection

ReCollection is an interactive art installation that forms images of personal memories from spoken language. Participants whisper a fragmented memory into a microphone. An artificial intelligence system converts the speech into text, completes the sentence as a short narrative, and generates images from the narrative. The images are then processed algorithmically into an evolving real-time visualization. The installation explores the relation between language, memory and imagination, and is also intended as a prototype for future work with people affected by dementia.
