Crystal Ball Virtual

Crystal Ball Virtual by Liao Yibai, this thought-provoking artwork immerses viewers in a realm where the boundaries of time and perception converge. Through the prism of a virtual crystal ball, the artist invites contemplation on the possibilities of predicting the future, mirroring the age-old practice of physical crystal ball divination. Liao Yibai prompts us to ponder whether the transformation of a single particle into a collective holds the key to unravelling glimpses of what lies ahead.

"Can a virtual crystal ball predict the future just like a physical one can? Does the transformation of a single particle into a group of particles contain clues for predicting the future? If humans can find a way to record or demonstrate future moments in time, what reasons do we have to continue living in the present? Is "hope" something that only exists when the future cannot be predicted?
I believe that humans live in a multidimensional space-time where the past, present, and future all exist simultaneously as different modules, but we can only see or experience certain segments at different points in time due to certain nodes being blocked off.
A transparent crystal ball is also a neglected space-time observer that allows us to speculate into the scenes in another universe through its mirrors."
