Connected Spirituality

Combining electroacoustic music improvisation and abstract painting, this research explores how sound and image can express the same emotion, movement, and energy.
It introduces the ideas of Connected Nature and Connected Spirituality — showing how art can unite technology, emotion, and the natural world.
Through reflection and creative analysis, the study reveals how technology can deepen our connection to nature.
The final performance demonstrates how music and painting can merge into one expressive language, creating a more integrated and human approach to creativity.

Visual Music AI

By comparing human-made and AI-generated paintings through a Cross-Modal Turing Test, the research examines how emotion mediates aesthetic perception and what this reveals about the interpretive gap between human and machine creativity.

Grounded in frameworks such as the Geneva Emotional Music Scale (GEMS), embodied cognition, and computational semiotics, this work redefines human–AI collaboration—not as imitation, but as a dialogue between perceptual systems.
Ultimately, the project aims to build a human-centred AI for art, bridging neuroscience, creative practice, and engineering through a new language of visual music.
