Zoom - in: a generative infinite-zoom video where a machine-trained "eye," built from a personal photo archive, chooses what in each frame to descend into. Every dive blooms into a new world, and the piece watches the machine reach for what mattered in a place — and find something beautifully wrong instead.

The Beauty Between Them
A deformed couple facing each other
Wenceslaus Hollar, after Leonardo da Vinci, 1645
Etching, second state of two
The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Object 17.50.18-209.
Wenceslaus Hollar's 1645 etching, after Leonardo da Vinci, depicts two figures facing one another with deliberately exaggerated facial features. The work explores a striking encounter through distortion, expression, and close observation.
The Beauty Between Them asks a simple question: What if beauty exists in the eyes of the person looking at you?
Inspired by Hollar's A deformed couple facing each other, I kept the figures' distinctive features rather than correcting or beautifying them. Instead, I transformed the world around their encounter. Their shared gaze becomes the source of warmth, tenderness, and beauty, as though the way they see each other changes reality itself.
I wanted the work to challenge the idea that beauty is an objective quality, and instead explore it as something created through recognition, affection, and perception.
Love in air😇😇
Created an AI-assisted UGC-style talking-head video using a hybrid local and cloud production workflow.
The character and scene were developed from a static image, then animated locally using ComfyUI and EchoMimic V3, with synthetic voice audio driving the initial facial performance and lip synchronization. The resulting footage was then refined with generative video processing to improve facial motion, expression, temporal consistency, and natural speech articulation.
The workflow was designed to reduce dependence on paid generation by using local GPU processing for experimentation and iteration, reserving cloud-based generation for final-quality refinement.

This is good! The motion is 👍
