Dear friends,

Here is some updates for my recent moves.
After my interactive installation Moving Mario awarded in Ars Electronica 2008, the interactive art category, Moving Mario is moving around the world: Austria, Croatia and Holland, and more coming up! Say hi to Mario if you find it in your country.

Best,

This is a super honor to me that my interactive installation Moving Mario awarded the Honorary Mention in PRIX ARS Electronica 2008, in the Interactive Arts Category! And Moving Mario is also exhibiting in Cyber Ars 08, Ars Electronica Festival 2008.

It is really excite to exhibit in OK Center for Contemporary Arts and joining the Ars Electronica Festival in Linz, Austria. You can find all the famous artists around the exhibition and the festival: Levelhead’s Julian Oliver, my first and the only PSP game in my life: Echochrome, by Jun Fujiki, all time master Zachary Lieberman and Theodore Watson with their Special Mention art developing platform openframeworks, digital music new hero Rectable and more and more. PRIX Ars Electronica Exhibition at OK Center for Contemporary Arts from 4 Sept to 12 Oct 2008.

I strongly recommend you should visit Ars Electronica Festival at least once in your life, it just amazing.

Moving Mario is exhibiting in the New Media Exhibition of Split Film Festival. In the same show, you can find Levelhead by Julian Oliver (ES) and Dune 4.0 by Daan Roosegaarde (NL) as well. (This is also an adventure of me with Julian Oliver with a strange map!)

Moving Mario exhibited at AveCom 2008, Arnhem, Holland. The theme of AveCom this year is It’s All in the Game. So it is very straight forward why Moving Mario in the exhibition!

It is also including another festival Square Eye Festival which is more focusing on video art. With the bar table in the venue, super cool team, you can feel, yes, this is the nation of freedom, with amazing people around.
