Post-human Spectacle

Post-human is the idea that humanity can be transformed, transcended, or eliminated either by technological advances or the evolutionary process. Inspired by a novel about post-human by Dung Kai-Cheung, Icy Lai curate this music performance titled Post-human Spectacle in 2022.

 

Collaborating with composer Austin Leung, Li transformed his cityscape photos into audio reactive visual in Touch Designer for the performance.

​

Also, he used machine learning method, styleGAN2 to be specific, to make his cityscape photos appear more ambiguous for the audience. Through the window shape projection, Li created a future Hong Kong city manipulated by machine.
