ASURA

Solar power captures the heat and light of the sun to generate electricity. Solar energy does not produce air emissions, generate solid waste, or use up water. It is available to everyone because there is sun everywhere on earth, it is available most of the year, and it is predictable and reliable.
The purpose of this motion project is to create an advertisement for Asura, the solar powered electric company. Since Asura is not yet a publicly traded company, they do not promote themselves actively, thus I decided to create an advertisement for it. I was inspired by the way solar panels move toward the positioning of the sun. The entire video is composed and curated with several footages of sun rising, falling and vibrating.

Ironically, the term, “Asura” means a member of a class of divine beings in the Vedic period, which in Indian mythology tend to be evil and in Zoroastrianism are benevolent.

the sound of the sun : click to hear.

I added the sound of the sun as a sound effect along with other musical elements to illustrate the motion of massive energy and vibration coming form the sun. The entire Sun vibrates from a complex pattern of acoustical waves, much like a bell. Astronomers at Stanford University can record acoustical pressure waves in the Sun by carefully tracking movements on the Sun's surface.

Walking and Thinking Circle

This project is about conscious sharing and unconscious receiving of information. I’ve trying to create a different way of sharing and browsing information through designing this site.  On the floor level people would actively think and share their ideas. On the ground level, people will get a chance to view other people’s ideas. The column will show the cumulated massive amount of information in random order, mirrors the fractions of the contemporary culture and notion. Viewers will interact with the stream of consciousness in a physical form through experiencing this column and filter the information to define and decode the trend of massive information with their own vision.
