憧憧 (동동), Experiential and Immersive Typography with an AI Technique, 2025
憧憧 (동동), Experiential and Immersive Typography with an AI Technique, 2025 동동(憧憧) captures the vibrant essence of anticipation, evoking a tangible sense of excitement as one awaits the arrival of something joyful and enriching. This expressive term serves as an onomatopoeic representation of human emotional interaction, laying the foundation for a transformative project centered on the profound themes of "Belonging" and "Trust." These elements address one of our most fundamental human needs: the innate desire to forge connections, feel accepted by a community, and find our unique place within shared spaces. This deep-seated need is intricately linked to trust, which is the cornerstone for cultivating meaningful relationships and emotional bonds. Historically, the symbolism of flowers has transcended time and culture, representing a wide array of human emotions—such as love, joy, and empathy—thereby enhancing interpersonal connections and expressing sentiments that unite us. The project, 동동(憧憧), aims to foster a sense of globally engaged citizenship by promoting togetherness and collective engagement. This requires openness, resilience, harmonious coexistence, planetary awareness, and trust.
