107.8682

107.8682 is a publication that visually explores silver, both as a physical element and a cultural symbol. It traces silver’s transformation from raw mineral to mythic artefact, examining its role across geological time, monetary systems, and human imagination. It is both a study in form and a tribute to a material that has shaped human civilisation while remaining mysterious, reflective, and ever-elusive. Silver screen printing is used in parts of the book, accompanied by a silver thermography cover. The format follows the silver ratio (1:√2), linking material form with conceptual structure.

Eat Fruit in Autumn

Combining cultural understanding with experimental and playful illustration, this publication guides readers on how best to sustain their health and energy through natural means during autumn. Since autumn is the most volatile and dry season, our body's resistance can be tested. According to ancient Chinese beliefs about matching food with seasonal cycles, the saying goes, “Eat according to the season”, and autumn is cited as the best season for fruit consumption. Eating fruits during autumn will recharge essential vitamins and minerals, speed up metabolism, and enhance immunity.

Original Machines

Original Machines explores the increasingly blurred boundary between human creativity and artificial intelligence. Through a series of surreal AI-generated images—vintage machines are fused with human features to provoke questions about authorship, originality, and the future of creativity. This invites viewers to reflect: when a machine generates an image, a poem, or a design—who is the creator? Is it still an act of human expression, or are we entering a new authorship era? The visual language is intentionally unsettling—harsh lighting, uncanny human-machine hybrids, clean grids, and minimal typography mirror the cold precision of machine logic.
