Paving the way is a prize-winning casual game that incubated during the week-long Cross-Cultural Impact Jam. Since the theme of this game jam is "amplify the voice", this game aims to raise public attention to visually impaired persons. Players experience what it’s like to be a visually impaired person by helping them navigate through town using tactile paving.

Fine Art Projects
Artist
I have created a series of artwork and held a thesis exhibition when I was pursuing an MFA degree at NYSCC. These artworks including PC games, interactive installations, and digital prints. Although being present in different ways, they all have the same theme: to explore the boundary between cyberspace and reality.
