Blind Landing


DA VINCHI CREATIVE 2019 - Media Art Biennale
SIGGRAPH ASIA 2020




Blind Landing is an interactive installation inspired by the novel, "Night Flight". Pilot, Fabien, is forced to make "instrumental landings," trained to rely on technology rather than believe in one's own senses in flight control.
As a metaphor, the work is installed as a control room where the audience becomes an individual pilot tester, predicted and guided by an AI mass-viewer.

The participant’s gaze and attentional level data is displayed—alongside the AI viewer—with a gradient scale consisting of five shades of red, based on the priority of prediction.  By utilizing a custom-built computer, an EEG helmet, and eye tracking, the installation uses the search results for "most viewed videos on YouTube" as a case, enabling participants to see how predictable they are under the algorithm of recommendation.

As a SNS platform with content promotion algorithms seeks to expend its business model using radical-symbiosis techniques, such as brain-computer-interface, the techniques risk inducing slanted mass media in micro levels of cognition based on customer decision-making habits. The work captures the points in which viewing content becomes daunting and hinders the viewer's probability.

Hope for Rats


2020 백남준아트센터 랜덤 액세스 Vol. 7 오주영 《주사위 게임》




Our everyday life is surrounded by numerous outcomes of scientific research. People believe in and rely on scientific facts and even look for hope for the future of mankind in scientific advances. However, it is almost impossible for the public to deeply understand scientific accomplishments, diverse and complicated. Our understanding of science is mostly at a superficial level and the majority of people’s faith in science is almost blind. Based on her own experiences as an artist as well as a researcher Oh points out that the basis scientific truths are founded on is not as solid as our expectations.

Hope for the Rats, 2020


Scientific discovery is a result of many failures. Therefore, a scientist’s research and experiment are inevitably repetitive work based on hope and a sense of duty. Such a scientific methodology cannot guarantee a significant outcome and is sometimes involved in destructive acts in the process. Hope for the Rats is comprised of a video game and records of failure that researcher P experienced. Visitors are invited to become the subjects of researcher P by the process of going through symbolically implemented stages while manipulating laboratory rats in the game. P’s efforts to produce rats with diabetes do not come to fruition, leading to sacrificing a number of rats regardless of the results of experiments. Repeated failures that visitors are bound to experience during the course of playing the game are reminiscent of the imperfect basis on which scientific truths are founded.
