Sonic Kitchen (2017) is a multi-facet project exploring the epistemological potential of sound. It was first performed in Shanghai as a full dining experience, and has been shown since as sound installation in Shanghai and Shenzhen.

Our sensory experiences are normally dominated by vision, which, at the same time, shapes our understanding of the world. In this project, sound has become an alternative epistemological system, bringing us back to hybrid and fused realities in which our sensorium is sharpened. Through the traslation of medium, it responses to our relationship with technology and ways of constructing reality. By intervening the process of food-making, an everyday situation is transformed into an idiosyncratic and unknown experiment, engendering new connections and experiences of the participants.

我们的感官经验往往被视觉所主导，它同时塑造了我们对于周围世界的认识。在这个项目中，声音成为一种替代性的认识系统，它将我们重新置入一个混杂的、融合的世界，以激活感官的敏感度；并透过媒介的转译，回应我们与技术的关系和构建现实的方法。项目通过对食物和料理过程的介入，将一个日常情景转化成为一个异质的、未知的实验，并借此激发观众建立新的关联和体验
