Throughout the development of human civilization, the world has evolved into one where technology constructs, enables, and mediates experience. Electronic displays and projector lenses have become natural interfaces for bodily perception, serving as primary media for viewing and reading information. This condition echoes Stiegler’s warning—viewed from an epigenetic perspective—about the danger of individual senses being controlled by industrial systems and the potential erasure of human desire and unconscious existence. It also continues Benjamin’s critique of the disappearance of "aura" in the age of mechanical reproduction. 

Over the past decade, various new media art practices involving light—such as lighting installations, 3D projection mapping, and site-specific environments—have allowed the artist to explore and demonstrate the reflexivity of the media she works with, seeking to deepen and diversify her understanding of the medium itself. Within this process, Waves of Code is a site-specific work based on AI-generated code, constructing an ecosystem formed through the interplay between machine perception and light.

In this work, code becomes a medium through which the machine understands, perceives, and articulates spatial experience. Using GPT to generate p5.js code, the artist develops grid-based programming that reveals the perceptual logic of the machine through its generative process.The sculptural installation extends her investigation into the real-time rendering of natural phenomena and further deepens an ongoing exploration of light itself. Composed solely of LEDs and acrylic glass, the work employs the visual language of three-dimensional infographics to explore spatial perception and the fluidity created by industrial light rather than by pre-programmed imagery, approaching the essence of aesthetics through the science of sensory experience.

In the virtual dimension, spatial coordinates align with sea level, recording environmental data such as wind speed, direction, and sunlight reflection throughout the day. These parameters are translated into a machine-generated visual system projected onto a sculpture of 221 LED panels. A central mirror reflects the sea level, extending physical space into a virtual horizon. A quiet yet radiant field that invites dialogue between people, light, and space, where perception continually shifts with each movement and prompts us to reconsider our own position within this hybrid perceptual field.
