My Essence, My Connectible

My Essence, My Connectible reimagines self-representation for the networked age. These animated diagrams do not portray faces – they trace the hidden logic of digital identity: flows, nodes, and shifting circuits of relation.

Created in 2022 as a long-form generative animated series, the collection comprises 155 unique works. Each piece is driven by algorithmic rhythm, suggesting that selfhood today is not a fixed image but a dynamic configuration – always syncing, routing, reassembling.

Visual structure is shaped by 17 distinct color themes – from Coral, Jazz, and Dusted Truffle to X-Ray and Vintage – each unfolding across multiple internal palettes. Backgrounds alternate between dotted and lined textures, establishing a subtle underlying pulse.

Three symbolic entities – circles, triangles, and rhombuses – appear with or without cores, acting as compositional signals within the generative field. The grid structure varies dynamically from 3×3 to 7×7 blocks, creating a shifting architecture of presence.

These are not illustrations of the self but generative mandalas: abstract and precise, mechanical yet alive. In the era of Web3, identity reveals itself not through appearance, but through motion and interconnection – through patterns we inhabit more than those we display.
