長期的研究範圍

作品關注感官，尤其對視覺和嗅覺最感興趣

研究

很多時會受科學現象或實驗啟發，其中一個方法是重做相關實驗， 或深入理解背後原理， 以此作起點， 再探索更多創作方向。

在多年收集有關視覺和氣味的書籍中研究有興趣
的方向
由於創作方法一般都有用到物理科技與程式編碼，
因此需要研究技術上的可行性

光學實驗（錄像、實物裝置）
氣味實驗
嘗試建構一些想象到的物理/機械設備

研究和創作時間

• 畢業後，要平衡上班和創作，這一年多來慢慢試驗可行的時間表。
• 最近最可行的方法是利用GTD（GTD時間管理法／Getting Things Done）工作法結合工作管理程式，把生活上每一個領域和工作細分，再用「時間分段法」（Time Blocking），劃出藝術研究與創作的時間段（當然思考可能在走路、等車、坐車時發生）。
• 工作室尚未佈置好的數個月
• 收入來源太不穩定的數個月
• 被 Freelance 工作佔據了每一天的時間
• 被 COVID-19 影響未來進修和海外駐地的方向，重新規劃的時間
• 剛開始全職工作，未掌握到工作與藝術的平衡
• 不夠錢，沒有資金支持的時間

Scope of Long-term Research

Research

One of the ways to research is to redo the experiment, or to understand the principles behind it and use it as a starting point to explore more creative directions.

Research and Artmaking Time

• After graduation, I’ve been trying to balance work and artmaking for the past year or so, and I’ve been trying with a workable schedule.
• Recently, the most feasible way is to use the GTD (Getting Things Done) task management system in conjunction with the Task Manager App to break down each area of life and task, and then use the Time Blocking method to draw up time slots for artistic research and creation [of course, idea brainstorming can happen when walking, waiting for a bus or during commuting].
• Those months when the studio was not set up
• Those months when the income was too unstable
• Those months when freelance job took up my time
• COVID-19 has affected the direction of my future studies and overseas residency program, time was spent on re-planning
• Just starting a full-time job, not getting used to the work-art balance
• Not having enough money, those time without funding support
