In this talk, Lau Hochi shares how he took a detour during and after his study at the School of Creative Media. Lau initially wanted to make films, but he soon identified his interest in interactive installation. His work led him to renowned media festivals, including Japan Media Arts Festival and Ars Electronica. He moved on to work as a researcher, exhibition coordinator, videographer, technician, and even kindergarten teacher until he created another installation three years later. This was followed by him receiving a grant from Asian Cultural Council to study MFA at Carnegie Mellon University. Currently, Lau runs the exhibition design studio, IOIO. Reflecting on his journey, he encourages students to seize every opportunity and make the most out of their cross-disciplinary learning experience in SCM.
