This world-first creation responds to both mid-air gestures and gentle touch. Embedded with capacitive sensors and AI-powered gesture recognition, the textile shifts colour and lighting effects in real time, transforming audience interaction into part of the artwork itself. Every movement, every touch, becomes a bridge between tradition and technology, opening the experience to all ages, cultures, and abilities. "Culture ‧ Future"  is more than an artwork—it’s a living canvas that invites participation, sparks connection, and redefines what cultural expression can be in the digital age.
