Pyramids and Parabolas I 2019

Weaving together scenes from the movie Contact with 16mm footage shot at the Very Large Array — the radio astronomy observatory in New Mexico, as well as three Mayan pyramids across the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico—Calakmul, Uxmal, and Cobá, Pyramids and Parabolas I is the first of a multi-episodic infinite film series that imagines how geometric forms can function as portals into parallel dimensions. The parabolic shape of modern day radio telescopes—made to listen to signals emitted by celestial objects and events, and similarly the pyramidal shapes of ancient Mayan monoliths—where priests communed with forces beyond the human realm, can both be understood as ways of transiting into alternate universes.

Pyramids and Parabolas II 2021

Calling attention to the body to foreground the experiential aspect of the film, the second episode of Pyramids and Parabolas begins with a two-minute body scan meditation in the dark. Followed by a quote from the Three Body Problem, “Three days from now, between one and five in the morning, the entire universe will flicker for you” — which acts almost like a spell, the film is a travelogue of the artist journeying through surreal and sublime landscapes in nature. Bookended by the building of a NASA JOVE radio telescope in Twentynine Palms, California, the collage film is the artist’s quest to touch the cosmos and connect with the universe through flesh.

Pyramids and Parabolas III 2024

In search of landscapes on Earth that resemble those from other planets, Pyramids and Parabolas III is a structuralist film that captures footage from solo expeditions to Utah, New Mexico, Arizona, Iceland, and the Arctic over the last six years. The film unfolds as a series of psychic states, presenting the body as an instrument for exploring physical and psychological landscapes. It weaves together travelogues, personal anecdotes, and family history — aiming to extend beyond the limits of human comprehension.

Love Me, If You Can 2004 ( 3.1)

Kung Fu Girls 2003 ( 10)

Four fearless and intrepid girls get selected by a recording company to undergo martial arts training in China to prepare themselves as a pop group. However, they are forced to disband one year later after their recording company goes under. Will these girls have the courage to stand up against all odds to fight for what they really believe in?

West Town Girls 2004

Due to a combination of bad writing, unnecessary and distracting directorial gimmicks (split screens, black & white, slow motion, etc.) and very inept subtitling, "West Down Girls" is almost completely impossible to follow, but I think it has something to do with the rivalry between two girls who are members of opposing street gangs, and the arrival on the scene of a third girl who is the childhood friend of one of them and the sister of the other. The (very few) action scenes are a complete mess. The film is basically an over-the-top melodrama and makes very little sense. I was too frustrated to even enjoy the beauty of Cheryl Yang and Annie Wu.
