AI Generated These I Had No Hands(en)
Exploring the diaspora and how we exist in the Western landscape, we are on this land that has a colonial agenda. At the beginning of the video, I put traditional paintings depicting the “sublime”- which come from the colonist lens, and then I added AI-generated images to re-catalog my experience living in this country. The keywords I put into the system to AI-generate images are words that are relevant to how I grew up, including pop-culture references, key landscapes from where I grew up, and critical political words- the Taiwanese flag in itself is a highly politicized word.

Bowlingtreff(de)
The “Bowlingtreff” is a bowling alley situated right in the centre of Leipzig opened in July 1987. At that time the quality of life in Leipzig and the whole GDR got worse. Houses collapsed because of poor conditions, public life and amusement was on a very low level. The “Bowlingtreff” was not merely an urban entertainment centre but a revolution in those days. Built with the help of hundreds of volunteers without permission of the state authorities in Berlin the building expresses a free and international architecture known as postmodernism. It is an architecture that was never seen before in Leipzig. Marble and parquet on the floor, a glass roof and beautiful pink pillars. The atmosphere was western as time witnesses remember it.

Filmed in the same studio and sitting in the same chair, 12 French prime ministers talk freely about their time in office, from their appointment until their resignation.
