Within Invisibility explores the tension between human perception of the city and the invisible environmental systems that sustain it. Wind — an intangible yet material medium — both transmits data and forms part of the structural fabric of the ecological environment. This work liberates "data" from abstract statistical graphs, returning it to the realm of bodily experience. As viewers move through the currents of air, their skin becomes the interface of perception. The artist collected wind data from forty major Chinese cities in 2011 and translated it into a multisensory installation: each city is represented by two fans whose motion traces a unique rhodonea curve. Every six hours of wind speed is condensed into a six-second cycle, creating a dynamic ecological network system.

Within Invisibility is an experiment in media ecology, treating the city as a metaphorical "organic computing system," where the dynamics of wind embody the convergence of energy, information, and perception. By integrating wind — the oldest natural medium — into the syntax of new-media installation, the work reveals the continuity between technological and natural perception.
