Huang, born in Taipai and educated in the United States, is an internationally exhibited new media artist whose recent exhibitions include the 2007 Venice Biennale and the U.S. electronic arts festival “01.” Drawing from the well of remix culture, Huang combines stripped electronic parts from the everyday objects that comprise our modern existence and creates a fully inhabited, interactive world that is both obviously familiar and strangely foreign.
