'''Ning Chen''' (born in Dec 3rd, 1987) is a exchange student from China. He has an English name which is "Galvin" yet he always blurs English name and Chinese name. An idealist and optimist as he, who dreams to travel all around the world and experience different lives. So he tried hard to study English (I know, I know, it's far from perfect but he does make progress everyday) and came to America as the first stop of his lifelong journey. He wants to do his portfolio project here. And one plus thing I am absolutely sure is, he is looking forward to some special experiences that the course may give him.

After successfully escaping from Chinese Government GFW(Great Firewall, an internet censorship), Ning explores and exhausts himself in the pursuit of everything he loves. He majors in Digital Media and loves finding the connections between art and technology then visualizing them.

At that time Ning met some of funny guys played arduino compatible board, [http://www.seeedstudio.com/ seeeduino] and [http://www.mt2a.com/j/index.php multi-touch] who are among the pioneers in china. We share the same motto that we truly believe interactive art can augment positive aspects of human life and it can change the world. Right now, we are running a [http://www.douban.com/event/11425863/ interactive shop's project] in Guangzhou China. At this point, through cooperating with some stylish shops, we try to improve the ambience of their shops by using interactive art. We volunteer to do all these for free. It is the beginning of our actions that change the city and the country finally the world by interactivity.
