醉夢星河 Enchanted Galaxy
Digital Media, AI Illustration, Interactive
借用元代詩人唐珙《題龍陽縣青草湖》後兩句 “醉後不知天在水，滿船清夢壓星河” 所命名及創作的意境。
意思大約是指 “醉臥扁舟，只見一片星光璀璨，似幻似真、縹緲迷離。不知是天上的星辰倒映在水中，還是觀賞者身處夢境？”
Using the last two lines of the Yuan dynasty poet Tang Gong's poem "On the Green Grass Lake of Longyang County" — "After getting drunk, I don't know if the sky is in the water, the whole boat is filled with clear dreams pressing down on the Milky Way" as inspiration for naming and creating a similar artistic conception.
The meaning roughly refers to: "Lying drunken in a small boat, I can only see a dazzling array of stars, both illusory and real, shimmering and elusive. I cannot tell if the stars in the sky are reflecting in the water, or if the observer is lost in a dream."
影片背景為一個像宇宙又像深海的星空, 星座插畫全以 AI 創作. 像小時候一邊看星座神話書, 一邊望著天空學習觀星, 把書裡的神話世界投射在夜空上.
The background of the video is a starry sky that resembles both the universe and the deep sea, with all the constellation illustrations created by AI. It evokes memories of childhood, when one would read constellation mythology books while gazing at the sky, projecting the mythological worlds from the books onto the night sky.
圖像使用了 AI 模仿 16世紀“蝕刻版畫”風格, 繪製出各海洋生物星座, 包括海豚座、鯨魚座、南魚座、雙魚座及水瓶座. 其中鯨魚座使用了希臘神話原型 Cetus 海怪設計, 一隻野豬頭鯨魚身體的造型.
為了使影片更多變化, 這些版畫插圖經 AI 去背景及人手修圖後, 會經過另一個 AI 程式作動畫化處理, 因而在影片裡會看到海豚及鯨魚擺尾的立體動作.
The images utilize AI to imitate the 16th-century "etching" style, depicting various marine creature constellations, including the Dolphin, Whale, Southern Fish, Pisces, and Aquarius. The Whale constellation is designed based on the Greek mythological prototype Cetus, featuring a unique shape with a wild boar's head and a whale's body.
To add more variation to the video, these illustrations are processed by AI to remove backgrounds and undergo manual retouching, followed by animation processing through another AI program. As a result, viewers will see three-dimensional movements of dolphins and whales swishing their tails in the video.

本身環境有柔和及放鬆的音樂播放, 而裝置選取了兩個星座, 分別是海豚座及鯨魚座, 以配合南灣地區的海洋生物主題. 星座以 3D 軟件建模及 3D 打印出來, 動物部分以半透明物料打印, 裡面放置 LED 燈. 而底座為浪花, 採用藍色不透明物料來放置感應裝置、電路板及小型喇叭.
The environment features soft and relaxing music, while the installation selects two constellations: the Dolphin and the Whale, in line with the marine life theme of the lakeside. The constellations are modeled using 3D software and 3D printed. The animal parts are printed in translucent resin material with LED lights. The base is designed to resemble waves, made from opaque blue PLA material to hold the sensors, circuit boards, and power supply. The surface of the constellations is affixed with sensing strips (copper tape), allowing audiences to produce dolphin and whale sound effects with a gentle touch.
