A satellite is a celestial body that orbits a planet in a periodic manner, such as the Earth's satellite is the Moon. The orbital cycle of a satellite is a metaphor for the concept of reincarnation, which also scales the spiral trajectory of time, such as the lunar calendar is a measure of time generated under this concept. The spatial and temporal situations experienced by humans in the present, under the cycle of the universe, can also be deduced from past experience through the interaction between the motion of satellites and planets and the possible galactic impact of future space-time. In other words, the satellite phase is a coordinates of its own complex shadow to the planets, projecting the past appearance of the planets and reflecting their future possibilities. The above exploration of galactic motions has influenced the development of satellite communication technology. Since the 40's of last century, the first Sputnik 1 launched by the Soviet Union in 1957, nearly 60 years of evolution, artificial satellites from the original military competition to today's civilian and commercial use, including: communications, entertainment, transportation, education, meteorology, etc., in the current globalization era, has become an indispensable tool for communication and observation. It can be said that the emergence and use of artificial satellites symbolizes a great leap forward in human civilization.
Under the global impact of the Covid-19 epidemic, human life and the development of the arts and culture have been greatly restricted and altered. As Yuval Noah Harari, author of "A Brief History of Humanity," puts it, "In each country, people are choosing whether to overcome the crisis through dictatorship, totalitarianism, and surveillance, or through social solidarity and empowered citizenship. In 2021, the Acid House team seeks to explore the spirit of the universe through the creation of a satellite platform, combining remote communication technology with artistic creativity to develop more diverse mechanisms of communication and expression in performance art, with the hope of going beyond the limits of the epidemic and exploring the popular and body politic of the exhibition. We hope to go beyond the limits of the epidemic to explore the politics of citizenship and the body in the exhibition, and to discuss various issues arising from the social impact of the epidemic.
The contents of this plan include: (1).Art Dealer - Participatory Art Actions (2). Regeneration - live streaming of performance art (3). Down To Earth - performance video archive screening (4).Online forum
Through the creation and practice of sub-units, we will continue to release innovative and experimental performance works, promote and co-create art to the public, and open up new modes of interaction.
