  “「              」” is an immersive experience installation with a combination with real time interacting system , physical installation and real time generating moving images . This is an open - topic project which mainly talking about why and how human can fully mobilize curiosity in exploring and planning for the future through their own personal experiences . 

This project is also a new experiment with only guidelines‘ installation with no limitation , let the audiences to explore by themself through the whole journey and generating their own unique insights and ideas through what have seen and heard .  

The project is inspired by my exploration of immersion. Through my exploration of multi interactive forms and media , I think that immersion not only requires the necessary integration and synergy of multiple media , while also need to give audiences space to imagine their own personal experiences and combine with their journey to create their own unique immersive experience .

The project consists of three dynamic real-time interactive installations and a 'meditation space' made of curved screens combined with real-time interaction to create an immersive space. The audience will first walk through a corridor with guiding lights to get used to the darkness. Once inside the space, the audience is guided by the lights around the screen and will experience a multi-sensory experience as they explore the installation one by one , culminating in feedback in the 'meditation space'. The audience will be able to explore the installation in an immersive and multisensory way.
