9月30日晚，AIGA Tech Salon 在跨界中心(Crossover Center)举行。来自纽约Parsons学院的Benjamin Bacon、NOKIA研究院的王霞、触景公司(Senscape)的陆凡、微软研究院的Sergio Paolantonio和肉媒体的吴珏辉分别就各自的领域作了精彩的演讲。吴珏辉以“在干和湿之间/Between Dry & Wet”为线索展开话题，并着重介绍了和清华大学神经工程实验室合作的艺术项目“脑电站”。整个沙龙持续3个小时，但听者不累。AIGA对这次论坛的组织工作做得很到位，尤其体现在对演讲主题的挑选和现场节奏的把控，果然是老牌的国际设计协会。

我们探索“脑能”在新媒体艺术中的基因排列，架设个体、群体、生命体、非生命体间的“情感接口”，尝试身体─脑─媒体之间的游戏规则，最终呈现为“脑电站”系列作品。
生物的潜意识流只能在脑的黑匣子里封闭涌动？我们尝试“点燃”脑，使意识的微弱波动增幅并赤裸呈现 。
在 前沿脑机接口（Brain-Computer Interface）的链接下，个体生物能转化为光电能， 头脑被异化为灯泡，成为可见光辐射源。受抽象声波干扰个体情绪后，脑机接口捕捉脑部意识的反馈，最后映射到灯泡的明暗变化。随着情绪波动而变幻的光，也在 个体周围结成辐射性的情绪力场，由此完成输入与输出、感性与理性之间的能量的链式反应。
该项目是TASML（清华大学艺术与科学中心媒体实验室）的试点项目之一，是艺术家与科学家的一次头脑对接。在此，脑机接口不但是一种物理接口，更是一种跨领域的意识接口。
We explore the possibility of using“brain power” in new media art by constructing “emotional interfaces” between the individual and the group, the organism and the non-organism, in experimentation of a game among body — brain — media.
Is the subconsciousness of the living organism only confined to spaces of the mind’s black box? We attemp to ignite the mind, by amplifying the weak brainwaves and translating them into real-world events.
On the basis of the cutting-edge Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) technology, the biological energy (the electrical activities of the brain) is transformed to a photovoltaic energy: the brain activity is expressed by a light bulb, an emitting source of visible light. When the individual’s moods are affected by abstract sound waves, the BCI captures the reactions of the mind, and projects the brain activity to a light bulb. The light intensity of the bulb changes in accordance to the individual’s mood, forming an emotional force field surrounding the individual, further impacting upon his/her mood. In this process, a chain reaction of energy transfer between input and output, sensibility and sense is established.
“Brain Station” is not only one of TASML’s (Tsinghua Art & Science Media Laboratory) pilot projects, but also an interface between artists and scientists. Here, the brain-computer interface is beyond a physical interface: it is an interface of consciousness between different disciplines.

一个器官蜕化成USB接口的人，通过外接摄像头、麦克风、扬声器等“USB器官”(USB Organs) 来体验某种存在感。未来的人们或许不再需要肉身，至少器官可以被替换。我们更乐于接受各种“USB器官”的信号，而日渐感受到生理器官的局限。或许，我们最终期盼的是让自己成为一个USB Hub，即插即用。
“延时器官”是USB器官系列作品之一，头盔内嵌一副HMD(头戴式显示器)和一个麦克风，同时外接一个USB摄像头和一个USB麦克风，通过设定延时长度，来决定感官世界与客观世界的时差──身处现在与过去两个时间流，体验由延时导致的时空错位感。作品向观众开放，现场观众可以穿戴该设备自行体验。
A person whose organs have evolved into USB sockets is connected to cameras, microphones and speakers as his sensory substitutes to feel his existence. A future human being may not need a corporal body, at least his / her organs can be exchanged with electronic devices. We anticipate our body as a universal plug / sockets that can be utilized at any moment and at any place.
The audience wears a helmet that is equipped with a head mounted display and a earphone. A USB camera and USB microphone are also connected to the helmet, which function as tentacles to sense the external world. The audience experiences temporal and spatial dislocation via a preconfigured duration of time-lapse which determines the time difference caused by the two time streams: time obtained through the audio-visual senses within the helmet and the time projected from outside the helmet.
USB 器官在散焦当代艺术展 (Defocus – Contemporary Art Exhibition)的现场，2010年12月
在韩国仁川国际数字艺术节（INDAF）的“感觉感觉”展览中，来自中国、日本和韩国的青年媒体艺术家们进行了一次集体亮相。TASML策划了展览的中国板块。整个艺术节在韩国仁川的Tomorrow City举办，从9月1日持续到9月30日，为期一个月。
TASML organized the Chinese young media artists’participation in the exhibition SENSE SENSES at Incheon International Media Art Festival, which brings together and showcases (YMA) Young Media Artists from China, Japan and Korea. The Festival ran from September 1 to September 30 2010 in Tomorrow City, Incheon, Republic of Korea.
感觉训练
策展人：张尕
数字技术的发展明显拓展了表达媒介的可能性。就艺术探索的层面而言，表达媒介已经参与到我们的整个感官系，同时增强了我们与外部世界的感性接触 。因此，在我们与不断延展的身体空间和媒介化的人类活动领域的关系中，感应技术及其他数字工具已经处于其核心地位。
媒介：卷扬机、安全带
两个被连接在机械绞盘上的人相互拥抱，但是瞬间就被强大的机器力量分开，重重地摔在地上，然后爬起来继续拥抱，继续被分开……通过设定简单的游戏规则在人、机、人之间建立一条互动链。机械绞盘将人际间的微妙关系转化为不可抗拒的驱动力。它给与一边的人拥抱的机会，他们可能是情侣、朋友、熟人或者陌生人；同时给与另一边的人操控他人的机会，可以是辅助，也可以是阻扰，温柔地或暴力地。
视觉聚焦能将观察对象无限放大，巨大的细节使得日常事物陌生化，呈现出现实的另外一面。多路监控探头摄取的画面实时叠加，将现场真实的人、物关系进行颠倒、重置──垃圾被放大，观众被缩小，在虚幻的影像中构建出一派虚拟景观。各种生活经验在视觉欺骗下被扭曲。
