🚩 New Media Artist Hsin-Chien Huang Leads "Garden Taipei/Formosa: Taiwan Grand Tour" with 22 Taiwan's VR and New Media Artworks to 2021 Ars Electronica Linz in Austria🇦🇹
2021 ARS ELECTRONICA FESTIVAL Ars Electronica has chosen “A New Digital Deal” as its annual theme, centering around the social and cultural transformations under the influence of technology from different countries. Also, it pays attention to changes of “the New Normal” due to the pandemic.
Hsin-Chien Huang, this year’s curator of the “Garden Taipei/Formosa”, resonates the theme with the “Taiwan Grand Tour”, hoping to waken our desire and ability to move freely during the journey via different kinds of media, also make more people see the marvelous results and how hard Taiwan has devoted to technology, culture, tradition, and tradition via international digital platforms. The tour will have become a window between the world and Taiwan.
The scale of this year’s exhibitions has been brought up a notch. Not only did it carry on displaying the VR and AR productions from last year, but the curator Hsin-Chien Huang has collaborated with three other, Hsiao-Yue Tsao, Billy Chang, and Chung-Hsien Chen, to call out many VR directors, new media artists, start-up companies and government institutions to join the project. There are 22 magnificent programs in total, which will be shown in categories such as “Immersive Tour”, “Animated Tour”, “New Media Tour”, “Earth Tour” and “Action Tour” respectively.
“Immersive Tour”, as the first part of the “Taiwan Grand Tour”, viewers can wander among the mountains, oceans, and rivers in the digital world, even outer space! Six scenes inspired by unique Taiwanese landscapes with cultural and biological features will be shared with the audiences, such as “The Starry Sand Beach” (Directed by Hsin-Chien Huang and Nina Barbier), “Moondream Reality-Rebirth”(Directed by Chi-Yen Chiang, Ami Wu), the shuttle VR 360 stereo video of “TAIPOWER D/S ONE.” (Directed by Ghung-I Hung and Shih-Chou Wen), “Floating Childhoods” (Directed by Hakka Public Communication Foundation and Wen-Chieh Chang), “Blue Tears EP1” (Directed by Hsiao-Yue Tsao), and “Samsara” (Directed by Hsin-Chien Huang).
In the “Animated Tour”, viewers can devote themselves to the characters via different programs. Whether it is the abstract or figurative visual style, audiences can experience anxiety and frustration all the way to happiness and growth. Getting rid of this disappointing reality, viewers shall continue the “Taiwan Grand Tour” through their imagination. This program consists of four animations: "Go Go Giwas: Sowing Dream Seeds"(Directed by Vick Wang, Yi-Feng Kao), "My grandmother is an Egg"(Directed by Wu-Ching Chang),"Inside"(Directed by Yu-Ting Hsueh), and "The Wayward Kite"(Directed by Yu-Ting Hsueh).
In the “New Media Tour” program, nine brilliant pieces created by Taiwanese artists will be shared as the relay points for the “Taiwan Grand Tour.” They use video, sound, electronic music, installation, and various new media to explore different topics, such as family, memory, city, society, landscape, and environment. We firmly believe that digital tools can also capture the warmth and emotions in reality. This program consists of nine artworks: "Surrounding Spectrum"(Directed by Hsiu-Ming Wu), "Nanyang Express II : Eternal Wandering and Tropical Pursuing"(Directed by Yi-Chi Lin), "Wave Waves"(Directed by Sio-Pang Hong), "That ・ This"(Directed by Ching-Chuan Hu), "Signal"(Directed by Chin-Hsiang Hu), "Tower of Babel by the sea"(Directed by Wei-Chung Feng), "How to explain love to an iPhone"(Directed by Jie-Huai Yang), "U+617E_v2.∞"(Directed by Jia-Hua Zhan), and "Absence in Presence"(Directed by Ning Tsai).
In the program “Earth Tour”, viewers will participate in a performance art called “Taste Soil”, which intends to rethink the relationship between humans and land by means of “eating.” The program brings together international eminent chefs Andre Chiang, dancer Billy Chang, new media artist Hsin-Chien Huang and Wen-Chieh Chang, fusing Taiwan’s unique traditions and customs with cuisines and dance performances via VR experience. A feast to the eyes and tastebuds awaits.
Looking back at the present time, humans need to take more efficient scientific actions in the digital world to reduce the consumption and pressure of resources and the environment and cope with the impact in the post-pandemic times. Two important technology units in Taiwan make their debut in the “Action Tour”: Miniwiz Co., Ltd. and the Taipei Urban Intelligence Center. The former is devoted to the sustainable development of materials science with digital technology and design, while the latter is the integration of big data and streaming technology to create a new technical model of urban governance. Combing these two, an answer to developing a sustainable society with digital energy is born. During the tour, a new performance art project is inspired by the digital cross-field cooperation for the first time. The Taipei Urban Intelligence Center will join hands with new media artist Chin-Hsiang Hu and the founder of Inwheel Ghung-I Hung, to create a new media artwork “The Weight of Data” by integrating both virtual and physical materials from different domains and sharing data resources.
The brilliant curatorial concept and lineup of the Taiwan Grand Tour have attracted the interest of the officials of the festival and been in the limelight. Therefore, the festival has invited three creators behind the “Earth Tour”: Andre Chiang, Billy Chang, and Hsin-Chien Huang, to an online interview called “Highlight Channel” at 18:00 on September 1 (Taiwan Time). The link will be provided by the official later on.

อย่างในรูปนี้คือประเทศไทย”

Case study of the mission of MEA. Nakhon Luang electricity / by Investing Man.
′′ I traveled to many cities where there was a wire tangled mess on the electric pole.
As in this photo is Thailand ′′
This is the message of Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft Company.
The reason he posted to Facebook himself in 2559 that time there were 18 million followers.
Just a moment... Become a serious ripple that everyone talks about.
The wire that is tangled. Bitches on the pole are actually not electrical wire but other cables such as telecommunications cable. Some people pay for rent. Some cables are smuggled.
When there is a wide range of trends, it causes relevant agencies to rush all types of lines into all underground.
Communication line. Office of Kor Sor. Will be responsible for this
The electrical wire that is aligned at the top. It will be the duty of Nakhon Luang electricity or MEA electricity.
This is interesting because of it. Did you know?
In fact, the electrical cable mission began from 2527 and ends in 2564, which routes 215.6 kilometers.
But... it's been 36 years. MEA can bring electrical cable underground for just 46.6 kilometers.
Or think only 21.6 % of target flagged.
So why is this mission delayed
So how much needed to put electrical cables underground
Investing man will tell you about it.
First of all, I need to tell why MEA wants all electrical cables to be buried underground.
First thing is if the electrical cable is underground. If there is a wind, there is a storm. Car crashes into electric
It's not going to make houses blackout like old electric pole.
Including electrical wire technology to support increasing amounts of electricity.
And finally, without wires will make the view around Bangkok beautiful as the future Metro. Smart Metro.
The next thing that many people ask is why it's so delayed to bring electrical cable to the ground.
The answer is that MEA is facing many obstacles and problems.
In fact, the budget invested in 10 times higher power cables compared to building electric poles on earth. The plan must pass consensus from each government cabinet.
And when it's approved, we have to plan to design construction both a pond and a hundred electrical cables to bring electrical wires underground. Each route will be different difficult and easy.
When you go through this process, you have to install an underground electrical wire. Then change the system from an air cable until the last step is to demolish the electric pole.
You will see that each action must go through many steps and still have to use cooperation from other agencies to work. Let's move forward together.
It's not easy to do construction work because it's limited by 22.00 hrs. - 05.00 pm That's all
To not affect traffic
And in some routes where at night are filled with shops and tourists, construction will be more difficult until delays.
I have to say this is a brutal task, not a little.
For electricity system to be stable, it can support the need for more electricity in urban areas than the original electric pole.
For Covid-19 crisis that causes everyone to stay home, distance and avoid touch.
This point becomes the main reason that people's behaviors change to online more.
Many government agencies have tried to implement online service system. Many people hope to reduce the burden in the situation. It is considered to be a refund policy, electricity insurance and electricity bill assistance measures that many people hope to help reduce the burden of the situation. COVID-19
MEA is also a top cuddle government agency that develops application and takes full advantage of IT system to provide online service.
MEA Smart Life Application. This app was developed to support unified electrical services since 2556 Guaranteed by ICT Excellence Awards in Thailand ICT Excellence Awards 2016, the main process development project (Core Process Improvement Project). And the cuddle digital government awards at the Digital Government Awards 2019
By this app, we can use to check electricity bill to pay electricity bill online. Notice of electricity losses including electricity announcement in our area. It is an app that meets all electrical issues.

MEASY Online Electrical Services via website https://eservice.mea.or.th/measy
To facilitate electricity anytime, anywhere. No need to travel anywhere. Know the cost immediately. You can pay online and follow the status at any stage.
MEA e-Bill is the latest online service to receive documents online via SMS or email.
e-Invoice: Electricity bill statement
e-Receipt / e-Tax Invoice: Receipt / Tax invoice
e-Notification: A book to pay electricity bill.
Sign up for service at https://ebill.mea.or.th
And another service that is indispensable in the New Normal era. That's MEA e-Payment. Electricity bill service via electronic system.
Did you know that during the COVID-19 situation, people pay electricity bill through online channels. It's increasing continuously during normal events in high school months. July 2563 at 54.6 % move up to 61.94 % in May. Oh my god. In the past or up to 7.34 %
In addition to paying via e-Payment, it's safe, no hassle, no paper touch and no travel, it's also free fees which can be paid through MEA Smart Life Application, bank account or credit card automatically, Mobile Banking and Internet Banking.
However, in the long term, when the crisis goes through, more people leave the house, we need to follow whether people's behaviors are the same. Or in the future, MEA will seek new features to meet customers, including the mission of MEA or the electricity of Nakhon Luang. How fast can the electrical wire be accomplished and how will the communication cable be progress? Everyone would dream of seeing Bangkok with a landscape of cuddle, wireless, electrical, mess in the future.
And when it's that time, Bill Gates visited Thailand again. He might take another photo and say that Bangkok is one of the most beautiful cities in the world..
