“巨石”装置通过灯光、声音和环境达到了前所未有的效果，探索了我们与显示屏和数据三者的当下和未来。这个装置作为2023年巴塞灯光秀的作品，一经展出就吸引了大量游客前往打卡，并迅速引起轰动。

The groundbreaking installation “Monolith” explores the present and future of our relation with screens and data using light, sound and context to unprecedented effect. It was unveiled in Barcelona as part of Llum BCN Festival 2023, drawing a large stream of visitors and becoming instantly viral.

这个装置作品以现今无处不在的显示屏为隐喻，向库布里克的经典电影《2001》致敬。显示屏是一面可以塑造自我角色的魔法镜子，并在其中越来越趋近我们所处的现实。它已经融入了我们的生活，时至今日它的影响力仍是不可估量的。

The piece pays homage to Kubrick’s classic film “2001”, and is presented as a metaphor of today’s pervasive screens. The screen is the magical mirror in which we build our personas, and where an ever larger part of our reality takes form. It has become integrated into our lives to an extent that, until fairly recently, was still unconceivable.

显示屏以大量空洞内容掩盖了破坏性的、解放性的尝试和非人造思想的传播潜力。我们仍惊叹于显示屏的持续更新迭代。显示屏让我们能够接触到一切，却又将我们束缚其中。

The screen’s potential for disruptive, emancipatory endeavours and for the circulation of genuine ideas is obscured by a deluge of empty content. We remain stunned by the constant updating of the screen. The screen gives us access to everything, yet keeps us in chains.

“巨石”装置对这种新型现实和对我们个人信息的侵袭提出了质疑。我们是否已经处于人类成为数据的时代？我们将如何面对身体和设备的整合？这是最后一代没有被数字化改造的人类吗？

“Monolith” draws into question this new reality and the encroaching intrusion into our personal information. Are we already in the time when humans become data? How will we confront the integration of bodies and devices? Is this the last generation of humans who are not digitally transformed?
