What is the most urgent need that you have?

Time is the most urgent need.

What is the best/ interesting case or project on new media arts that you have just recently experienced?

Recently, I am interested in a project about immortalised bio life by Dutch artist Anna Dumitriu. She spend 12 years to finish her PhD study, and also during this time, she found an immortal kind of generalized bacteria. By studing this particular bacteria, she explores and shows us what does immortal mean and her understanding of religion as well.

In your opinion, is there a potential for change on and change through a policy level, i.e. has the status of policy as an accelerator/ a meaningful factor for practice changed?

In China, the goverment is not much concerned with development of new media art and there’s n o particular official department that deal with it, so whether there is a potential or not , our artists couldn’t foresee or make any statement.
