about-Hao Huang

ART&DESIGN

Hao Huang comes from China, with a fine art background. After graduation, he worked as a product designer in zhuodao Art Co., Ltd. During this period, he began to be interested in design, so in his works, he is more likely to explore the balance between contemporary art and design.

He thinks that good design needs to be critical. It should make people alert and think deeply. Sometimes it is an anti design, but it can promote the development of design and society. He thinks that the relationship between us and technology should be a process of constantly reflecting on our behaviour and habits.

Hao Huang-statement

In the era of social media, the recommendation algorithm has influenced the content seen by the public, resulting in the "filter-bubble" effect, making it more difficult for the people to access information that is different from their own ideas, and aggravating group prejudice.

I explore an alternative approach to "filter-bubble". Re-education, a digital machine that can distract algorithms, to help people get out the filter bubble.

The formation of the algorithm is based on the collection of user data, but we are passive in the whole process. In the data age, we have long been used to exchanging data for "free" Internet services. We only have to passively obey and share. Can we have another choice? What if we can actively disclose fake data to distract the algorithm?

This device has three functions. Function 1, when the device is running, it will continue to play political information that users do not like, just like political brainwashing. Function 2, the controller will constantly input the search words that are opposite to you into your application search engine. Function 3, the machine will open your social application and simulate your internet behaviour, including likes and collections, but the process is random.
