2050: A Journal of Art and Science
The journal 2050, as a media, provides a space for art and science where the both fields meet and create new ideas.
Originally the idea of the future was inspired by Danny Hillis in the talk of “Back to the Future (of 1994)” when he said that people were discussed the year 2000 as the future. These words provided me a different perspective to think about the time and what the reality that both the artist and the scientist are searching for, which forms the concept of 2050.
When mapping the collected articles, I found that there is an abstract idea that the articles shared: novelty. As the articles were categorized into Art and Science, the individual article that carries its own uniqueness either artistically and/or scientifically becomes more interesting when juxtaposed together.
Here, 2050 represents the newness of the article and the conversation that creates by the paired ones. Viewers are invited to find their own interpretation of the paired articles. I believe that newness is the representation of the origin and this is where the story begins, 2050: A journal of Art and Science.

The Fault In Our Stars by John Green (by Han-Yun Liang | Joanne)
ticket design for the “express fight club”, a nine-day workshop led by max schumacher and sibin Vassilev, post theater, in 2009.
the ticket will become a wristband, after tearing off the top and the bottom parts. each ticket has a unique number on it; the audience will use/identify/response the number in the interactive projection art piece.

Lucidity
Perhaps it always be like this,
Yet now she feels rather truthful.
Day after day, she sees, she listens, and then
she sleeps;
Sleep yet awake,
Under the pond of Xanadu.
Always listening to the world underground,
She hears the whisper lines
Everywhere through the tinkling cooper bell
From the world underground
Close to the pond.
Now her shell is strong and still
protects her as a crescent decibel.
She walks and waits and wonders
Till the fluff flows again
in that dreamy rain.
Tis the alpha and omega.

This is part of my project for 2012 “The Sketchbook Project.” My random selected title is “Along The Line”; the fun thing is I begin with simple mind: follow the line. And later, this brings me to deeper and deeper thoughts and feeling. To follow the line and let them flow out.
