Geomancer

Heralded by the futuristic computer-generated cityscapes that have become a signature feature of his work, Lawrence Lek’s mini-opus Geomancer is less inclined to map the building blocks of the urban architecture of tomorrow than to try and summon up the spirit of our rapidly dawning age - one whose characteristics, Lek implies, include the growing ascendancy of the cultural phenomenon of Sino-Futurism. As the geopolitical axis tilts further to the East, and as once-dominant economic/technological models are cast into doubt, Lek alights on a longstanding tension between the place of the human and the role of the machine, sharpened by contemporary hopes and anxieties around the rise of East Asia, and by speculations that new forms of artificial intelligence, already outperforming mere mortals in matters of automation and aggregation, will challenge us in more creative skills as well.

The Abyss

My inspiration is from the novel Us, which was written by Yevgeny Zamyatin, a Russian writer. In this world, no one has his/her own name except a code. Human beings are divided into several levels. Different levels were assigned to different types of work. The “Fountain” is both the source of energy and the landmark landscape in this city. There are many tall towers like diving platforms near the fountain. People can get closed to the “fountain” here. This city is always crowded and dark. D-503 lives a regular life here every day…

In 2040, the continuous discharge of global pollutants has caused severe pollution of seawater and coastal areas, making them no longer suitable for human habitation. As a result, humans have initiated an inland migration plan, and all coastal residents are moving inland to bid farewell to the sea; Akai and his girlfriend, who had never met before, made plans to meet at the beach where they lived. They explored each other's different lives, but were diagnosed with color blindness during the driver's license examination. At the same time, his girlfriend was forced to move away from the beach

Desire Line

"Desire Line" was originally an architect's term for paths made by people when walking across open grassland, what these lines represent are the shortest or most easily navigated routes between an origin and destination. The film uses this idea in the context of how an artificial intelligence might work: the AI generates optimal solutions to user problems as a form of desire line calculation. The film aims to interrogate the increasingly controversial role of Artificial Intelligence by visualising a statement from a bot about its experience on a Valentine's Day in the near future.

The "robot duck" from the moon, Ani, is adopted by a mother duck of the prairie flying duck family by chance. A Nai firmly believes that he, like the other ducklings, is eager to be able to fly. The super power chip on Ani's body attracts the tracking of the moon people, and it turns out that Ani is a super bomb used by the evil scientists on the moon to destroy the earth's atmosphere. With the coyotes chasing him, Ani and his buddies go south to reunite with the migrating ducks. Despite the danger of the chip explosion, Ani defeats the evil doctor and helps the duck flock to reach the south with love, affection and bravery. Ani also realized his dream: to grow up to be a real flying duck.
