Cyber Monk

Media: Mechanical Installation, Spring 2024

Autonomous mechanical system that fuses Daoist philosophy with technology

"Where the mechanical meets the spiritual, harmony between tradition and innovation is born."

Cyber Monk is an autonomously operating mechanical system that draws inspiration from Daoist philosophy and the Bagua (Eight Trigrams) symbols. Using a series of tuning forks, the mechanism mimics the rhythmic striking of a traditional wooden fish drum, a tool used in meditative and ritual practices. The tuning forks generate resonant tones that invite deep contemplation and spiritual reflection, blending ancient wisdom with modern technology.

This fusion of mechanical precision and spiritual tradition creates a unique auditory experience, encouraging a dialogue between the physical and the metaphysical, the digital and the divine.
