(Arbo)Real Networks / 联媒现实网络
2024 Team Work / 团队项目 
(Arbo)Real Networks explores the significance of nonverbal forms of communication in the contemporary world, as interpersonal interactions are increasingly taking place in the virtual setting. In the age of Zoom, FaceTime and social media, the nature of physical touch and body language as indispensable components of any authentic human exchange has been overlooked. Since simplified digital personas cannot stand in for complex human essences, virtual communication practices often produce superficial exchanges, disconnected on both social and emotional levels.

In (Arbo)Real Networks, the tree, which evolves by adapting to the physical conditions, becomes a metaphor for an interpersonal exchange in which bodily presence is essential. Registering the physicality of the viewer as they approach, the sculpture offers a visualization of a network of reactive, dynamic selves acknowledged for their corporeal nature. With an emphasis on multidimensionality contrary to the familiar flat surface of the laptop or phone screen, the installation hopes to encourage reflection on the need to reincorporate nonverbal forms of communication into new practices of exchange.
(Arbo)Real Networks 探讨了当今世界中非语言形式的沟通的重要性，因为人际互动日益发生在虚拟环境中。在Zoom、FaceTime和社交媒体时代，作为任何真实人际交流不可或缺的组成部分，身体接触和肢体语言已被忽视。由于简化的数字化人物形象无法替代复杂的人类本质，虚拟沟通实践往往产生表面的交流，在社交和情感层面上都缺乏联系。

(Arbo)Real Networks  中，树作为一种适应物理条件而不断发展的象征，成为了一种身体存在至关重要的人际交流的隐喻。当观众接近时，雕塑会感知到观众的身体特征，呈现出一种对自身实质性质感知的反应性、动态性自我网络的可视化。与笔记本电脑或手机屏幕相反，该装置强调多维度，希望鼓励人们反思将非语言形式的沟通重新纳入到新的交流实践中的必要性。
