"Forging eternal life and emotions in the digital realm."

Che-Yu Wu is a multidisciplinary new media artist, designer, and engineer who centers his practice on algorithms, exploring eternal life and emotion within the digital realm. By combining the rationality of his electrical engineering background at National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University with the sentimentality of visual design, he draws inspiration from nature, physics, modern art, and mathematical rhythm. Wu employs advanced computation and interactive technologies to imbue digital art with a unique language, creating "living artworks" that build a bridge between the virtual and the real while connecting with the viewer's soul.

Wu’s generative art has garnered international acclaim, with exhibitions at prestigious stages including the Venice Biennale (SoulFish) and Art Basel Miami (The Soul of Flowers). His iconic series, such as Seaham and CryptoPochi, are celebrated for their ability to evoke profound emotional resonance through procedural chaos. Constantly expanding the boundaries of his medium, his recent works focus on the dialogue between unstable systems and human interaction. During his 2024 residency at Cent Quatre 104 in Paris, he created The Eternal Garden in a Bottle, investigating the improvisational cycles between humans and machines. He further explored the synesthetic relationship between sound and code in Algorithmic Psalms, an immersive piano concert at Huashan Creative Park where live music drove real-time generative visuals.

Beyond his artistic practice, Wu extends his aesthetic philosophy into spatial design and interactive exhibitions as the founder of Monoame Design and MonoLab. With over eight years of industry experience, he has provided dynamic experience applications and solutions for high-profile clients such as the National Palace Museum, LG, Nissan, the Department of Rapid Transit Systems, and Remy Martin. His work in this sector demonstrates a unique ability to translate complex algorithmic concepts into engaging commercial and cultural experiences.

A dedicated educator committed to the future of new media, Wu holds a Master’s degree in Integrated Digital Media from New York University (NYU) and currently serves as an Assistant Professor of Practice at National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (NYCU). He has devoted himself to advocating for creative coding through his online courses on Hahow. These courses, covering animated website development and interactive experience design, have empowered over 22,000 students, cultivating a new generation of creators equipped to explore the border between art and engineering.
