This is an online Happening. On a social network video platform, through the use of a series of artificial intelligence filters, which were originally designed to achieve entertainment functions, I took a series of clips and grouped them together to try to express non entertainment topic. And I first released the video clip on the platform. I even bought paid promotion services. But both of my applications were rejected, and the money I had already paid was returned. It seems that this Happening is also about Performing Tolerance. I will also continue to try other ways to get more users to see this video on this platform and beyond. This video itself can’t be defined as an artwork. It’s functional for our art project “The Good Person of Wuhan” and is to make more people interested and understand our project, which is to aid those who have been in despair and sorrow under the influence of the plague all over the world, help them to find way to express - let them wear all kinds of masks, identity not be captured by news colonization. So this is also an ongoing work. Its inspiration comes from Brecht’s drama “The Good Person of Sichuan”. Please also help us spread it to more people.
