So ...... Hello everyone I'm Chen Yang, I come from a computer science background and graduated from Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications. As you can see, I use anime avatar (laughs) and I'm just a silent designer and developer. Next is my experience. Please don't be shocked by this photo - this is the person I used to be. I like to experiment with different hairstyles, so the next year could also be very different for me than it is now. So, while in college, I (the man!) worked on machine learning at CASIA, known as The Institute of Automation, Chinese Academy of Sciences. Then I worked on pattern recognition, human cognition, and data visualization at Microsoft Research Asia and Tencent PCG. Of course, for reasons I've mentioned before - if I could explain it again, I was tired of writing lots of apps that push spam and ad notifications to everyone's phone - I finally decided to study digital arts. By the way, my interests are mainly music games, MMORPGs, and synthesizers, and I learned that there are a lot of students in our program who are good at music, and I want to learn from you.
Next I'd like to start with a research project I'm working on. Please take a look at these three pictures: they are all buildings under construction by humans, but not built. As you know, programmers like to give their projects fancy names before they write code (laughs), so that's what the name means: great but unfinished intellectual achievements of human communities. As I said, I do a lot of data-related work: this is using sensors to collect physical simulations and hydrological information about rivers; this is using Internet data to restore human personalities and habits; this is using machines to understand and generate classical music; this is using sensors to reflect the relationship of the human organism to confront and adapt to its environment. In doing this work, I realized a question: do sensors and data now connect all living things to the world, and is there an abstract pattern in this that can decipher the relationship of our minds to the world? See the related work here: a series of big data devices, reflections on the origin of the universe, and some topological structures are included. These structures appear as Feynman diagrams in physics, nodes in the TouchDesigner we normally use, neural networks, and the pentagram of the sound network. So with this project I hope to investigate a new way of interaction and visualization that allows people to interact with the vast amount of data and the nature of the existence of the universe in an intuitive way. So this project is about our outward connection to this material world.
The next project's is of interest to me in the midst of storytelling. Look at this graphic: this is the Buddhist Karma, a symbol that describes the connection between karma and things in one's reincarnation. Perhaps people with different beliefs will think of concepts within sin and punishment. I went through a period of anxiety and depression - something I'm sure many people here have felt (laughs) at a time when I realized that in modern society people are so atomized and isolated, and that the connections between us are false: not about political topics, preferences or clothing, but deeper emotional connections. ok. So at the time I was making all kinds of games, like platform-hopping action games, music games, and a pet companion to accompany you on your travels. I was trying to use all sorts of intuitive means to make the player experience storytelling and emotion. At this time I was also exposed to mythology as well as anthropology, and I became interested in the ability of artists to influence people's imperceptible subconscious as well as behavioral patterns like shamans. So this is my question: the possibility of story and emotional influence on our perceived connection to others and the world. Awareness of our bodies, cells and atoms, sharing the same atoms as all planets and creatures, and a shared responsibility for the future of the universe, and the inevitable entropy increase and thermal silence. So you'll see in the works I've referenced so far a series of video games that are designed to allow the viewer to interact intuitively with the world and the flow of emotions, and to reflect on the fragility and narcissism of their own lives.
OK. I'll end with this: I've done product design, studied machine learning and data visualization, and now I want to study 3D, music and illustration, but the most important thing I've learned is not to be limited by the way I present myself. Go and break down all the barriers (like color weakness (laughs)) and then find new means to present the subject you want to explore. That's why I'm here. Thank you all.

A brief self introduction / 簡単な自己紹介
I'm Cheny Young (a.k.a. Dimpurr Cheny, DimP). I'm an artist, designer and developer from China.
I like to get along with the great works of art and spiritual wealth in human history. I am majoring in Software Engineering at BUPT, and want to learn aesthetics, drawing and design, writing and story telling. I also work in electronic music and indie game.
I hope I can become a multilingual user to meet friends from different cultural backgrounds, and express my thoughts to more people we love.
I want to use my brush in hand to find, capture and depict the common values of humanity - love, and record how people overcome difficulties and sufferings in reality to achieve understanding and tolerance.
The topics I am good at include geeks and digital, Japanese anime and Otaku related. Queen is a band I love very much. I'm mad at music and rhythm games. My favorite Vtuber (Virtual Youtuber) is Cierra, did you know, she's so cute :D
Feel free to chat with me.
