Philosophy
"
I used to code with digits to reveal what I want to build for functionalities; Now I am building up a unique artistic voice coding with digits, my body and my soul, to realize what I want to create, advocate and inspire for greater idealism impacts.
"Creative Tech & AI Motion Innovation
I craft experiences where AI amplifies human creativity. From motion-capture art to generative storytelling, I explore how technology can make us more expressive, not less.
