In this setting, two new forms of future city emerge: floating cities and urban rewilding. They are often seen as plausible geoengineering ideas in response to the climate crisis. In my worldbuilding, some coastal cities are researching and making decisions around more extreme versions of these two urban forms. Projects based on this setting often focus on the process of research, testing, and decision-making by the citizens. The worldbuilding, as science fiction or speculative fiction, becomes a generative backdrop for the work, stimulating and containing various concepts and narratives.
《临近的抉择》 是一个生成式的世界构建，源于我对气候变化情境下人类境况的变化的兴趣。它为一系列作品提供了背景设定，包括影像、角色扮演卡牌游戏和表演性讲座。
该设定主要关注两种新的城市建筑形态：水上城市与城市再野化。这两种形态常作为城市应对气候问题而可能进行的地景改造方案。这个世界构建中，一些沿海城市关于这两种方案的极端版本进行选择。《临近的抉择》作为科学幻想或者推演性虚构，为作品提供了一个生成式的背景，激发与承载不同的观念与叙事。
Imminent Decisions: A Generative Lecture-performance on Ecology and Time
Vortex by MACA Art Center, Fotografiska Shanghai
This lecture-performance features three sets of eco-fictional stories, many co-written with AI. The stories are climate-inspired but also about entangled coexistence, chaos of causality, dilemmas of decision making, and the ironies of time.
Made and performed with Fuser AI.
《临近的抉择：一场关于生态与时间的生成式讲演》
MACA艺术中心“漩涡”特别沙龙项目，上海Fotografiska
这个表演性讲座项目包含三组生态叙事，大部分由AI共同写作。这些故事聚焦于城市居民为未来的改造方案进行研究、测试与决策的过程。这些故事虽然基于气候问题，但更多是关于纠缠的共存、因果的混沌、抉择的困境、时间的讽刺。
使用Fuser AI制作并作为表演媒介。
Imminent Decisions: A Role-playing Card Game
Workshop at Times Museum Guangdong
In this role-playing card game, players take on various roles to analyze the pros and cons of the floating city and the rewilded city plans.
