Kepler's new media in art

1-minute video: the Eye of the Beholder  https://youtu.be/Ku7-N_mdD6I "Everything was dominated by the eye of the beholder" (McLuhan, 57).       Everything starts with this quote. I went to the involvement fair a week ago, and I saw so many organizations on that day. I really appreciated the events. It was fun, and the ice cream was good.      I was intrigued by this quote, so I kept it in mind. When I was standing in the corner, looking at the people, I started to think about if I perceive the  involvement fair in a "beholder"'s view, I might have some different thoughts about this event. I remember there was music playing outside, but the louder musics are, the less people listen. We were all trying to convince others. We spoke louder and louder. But how much did listeners get? Did they really hear what you said? Did they really get what you said?      Then  I was a little bit tired of applying any music to this video. I muted the video, and I put the sound of

Valaria Tatera  I was  really  impressed by  how real life can be reflected by abstract in particular  how she put spirits into her pieces . I appreciated her use of ribbons. They remind me of “Tibetan prayer flag”, a colorful rectangular cloth, often found strung along trails and peaks high in the Himalayas.

I love the soft movement in ribbons.  Tatera  creates a space to  let  every ribbon and visitor  gather together and  listen to the “justice” that they bring to each other .  It was so cool.   “The method of our time is to use not a single but multiple models for explo

A new generation is coming  (One of the albums that I listened the most, called  "Go to 2000"  (1999), by a Chinese singer Pushu )      I was born in 2001, which was a year encountered the big transition from cassette generation to disk generation. I have been through those great years from radios to Spotify, from telephones to smart phones and from something unmovable to everything portable. Those past stuffs always remind me of how I was growing up with them, and how my life is changing right now. I'm inevitably thinking about if I'm actively learning about new media or I'm forced to adapt to them. What is my position in this generation? I don't know, but anyways, I am always looking forward to the coming of a new generation. "As we begin, so shall we go" (McLuhan,46).      I cherish all the new ideas.     I cherish all the emotions.      New ideas bring drastic revolutions.      Emotions keep every tiny piece of mercy.      They are as precious as
