自我介紹/ 經驗 Self-Introduction/ Past experiences :
可以是關於你的一個簡短故事，例如什麼是你和「舊世界」的連結、你曾經使用你的技術參與和幫助社會計劃的經驗。
It could be a short story about yourself, your connection to an "old world", an experience of participating a social project with the help of your techniques.

我的表演工作涉及相遇，交流和感官詢問。在為小組設計的沉浸式活動中，觀眾通過具體的互動參與到表達意義中來。例子包括反映西藏鋰礦開採的步行表演，通宵播放鳥兒黎明合唱的營地，以及記錄食物歷史故事的實驗紀錄片，其中音頻伴隨著觀眾可以聞，觸摸和品嚐的物理對象。

在我最近的「水電台」項目中，參與者被邀請演奏水傳導聲音迴路，品嚐海洋植物，摩擦紅樹林樹皮，並感受水對皮膚的抵抗力。通過吸引人們對人類文化與自然糾纏的方式的關注，我的項目改變了觀眾注意到，見證和欣賞這些交集的能力。

我現在正在進行的計劃「石油祖先」擴大了我對萬物有靈論的參與，萬物有靈論經常通過儀式實踐來探索人類與非人類之間的關係。承認植物，動物，岩石，金屬和水體為人類的基礎，這是許多土著傳統的基礎，並且也推動了一項名為「自然權」的法律運動，該運動質疑人們普遍認為自然是人類擁有，使用的資源。和濫用。

My performance work involves encounter, exchange, and sensory inquiry. During immersive events designed for small groups, the audience participates in making meaning through embodied interaction. ​Examples include walking performances in response to lithium mining in Tibet, an overnight camp for broadcasting the dawn chorus of birds, and an experimental documentary featuring food heritage stories in which audio was accompanied by physical objects that the audience could smell, touch, and taste.

In my recent project Water Radio, participants were invited to play a water conductivity sound circuit, taste sea plants, make rubbings of mangrove bark, and feel the resistance of water on their skin. By drawing attention to the ways that human culture and nature are entangled, my projects shift the audience’s ability to notice, witness, and revere these intersections.

My current project Oil Ancestors expands my engagement with animism, which explores the relationships between human and other-than-human beings, often through ritual practices. Acknowledging plants, animals, rocks, metals and bodies of water as persons is the basis of many indigenous traditions and also informs a legal movement called “the rights of nature” which questions the popular belief that nature is a resource for humans to own, use, and abuse.

想分享的技術或技藝或概念 Technique/Concept that I want to share :
可以是一個技術、工藝知識、DIY技術、甚至是一種觀念 It could be a skills, tool, knowledge, craft technique, DIY technology or even just a concept.

skills I have been learning:
-simple solar circuits, especially with reclaimed panel scraps
-physical computing w/ Circuit Playground
-handmade websites with HTML and CSS
-small game engines (ie Bitsy, Twine)
-code with Python and p5js

skills I can readily share:
-gardening, composting, seed starting, mushroom cultivation, herbalism, horticultural therapy
-pickling and fermentation
-handmade and cameraless photo processes (chemigram, cyanotype, direct animation on 16mm)
-documentary, field recording, and/or oral history with audio or video

I'm having trouble narrowing down the options. At the moment I'd like to offer a tutorial explaining how to livestream sounds from your environment from a phone to an online soundmap. We can learn more about a place by listening to the everyday sounds of that environment.
