My future aspiration is to become a “Total Creator”—a multidisciplinary practitioner who controls every aspect of music, visual concept, and cultural narrative. I am deeply inspired by figures like Min Hee-jin (the creative force behind NewJeans） and the aesthetics and concept of XG; however, I want to distance myself from hyper-commercialized “Idol” structures. Instead, I aim to use professional music production to package deep anthropological research.
This vision has been shaped by my upcoming transition to UCL for an MA in Digital Anthropology. I want to continue my research into East Asian social dynamics, specifically the structural issues within households and the “Tu Hai” (low-fi) internet subcultures. My goal is to produce works that are visually polished like a pop production but intellectually grounded in ethnographic study. I want to reclaim the right to be “out of focus” and “failed” through my art, moving beyond the BA Sound Arts bubble into a space where subcultural critique meets professional execution.
I would Love to engage in this open call but missed the deadline.
