1. Out of Touch

   In our world of perpetual connectivity, touching interfaces that keep us out of reach, we form attachments whilst remaining detached, by turns kindling and dampening emotions. Conceived as the first in a series of musings on the paradoxical and sometimes poignant nature of human relationships amid networked life, Out of Touch was created in Flash and incorporates text sequences, randomness, intensively filtered video, sound and cut-up voices.

   This Out of Touch episode was commissioned by the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art for the Third Hand Plays series curated by Brian Stefans, who wrote:

2. Back in the R.0.K.

   The work Back in the R.0.K is set in Young-Hae Chang Heavy Industries usual monochrome style. The narrative is based on a taxi ride in the Republic of Korea. The smell of the driver, the traffic lights and the message on the radio are accentuated. The story is almost that of a nightmare and ends with the word NO.

   The work was published on Young-Hae Chang Heavy Industries' web page in 2009, according to the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine, and was adapted to video format around 2021.

4. Urgent Request

   The work Urgent Request tells the story of a man, Kim, who left society and money behind to live an ascetic life in Seoul. By telling this story Young-hae Chang Heavy Industries asks the reader for money, as then the reader will have learned a valuable lesson and helped YHCHI at the same time. At the end of the work it is possible to click donate and the reader is directed to Paypal.

   The style of the work resembles that of a spam mail which promises a better life in exchange for a sum of money.

7. Turkmenbashi, mon amour

   The animation "Turkmenbashi, mon amour" features the famous virtual character Mouchette created by Franco-Dutch artist Martine Neddam in 1997. The scenario was inspired by a love letter addressed to Turkmenistan’s dictator, the late Saparmyrat ‘Turkmenbashi’ Nyýazow. Over occasional sightings of his image (statues, digital photos, monuments) in the city of Achgabat, she comments, ironically, about one of the most repressive and least known dictator on Earth. Dealing with a highly sensitive topic, the adventures of Mouchette in Turkmenistan stages the meeting of two fictitious characters, one being the dictator, in order to convey actual information about a real country. The work was exhibited first in the Montreal Biennale 2011.

10. Jean-Pierre Balpe ou les Lettres Dérangées

    Jean-Pierre Balpe ou les Lettres Dérangées was created as a homage to the poet and software developer Jean-Pierre Balpe. The title of the piece can be understood in a number of ways. In French, the word "letters" refers to the alphabet, mail correspondence, and also to the art of writing itself. The piece consists of a number of letters which are not all visible to the reader until the very end. The word "dérangé" has a number of meanings as well. One meaning is physical disturbance. The letters themselves are distorted, just as the meaning of letters and words became distorted when Balpe introduced the literary world to text generation. The word also means mental disturbance. Disturbed by the mouse passing over them, the letters unpredictably go in all directions without reason. The underlying algorithm brings the letters to madness. The actions of the reader turn the poem into a kind of game. The purpose of the game is to get to the end of the poem by playing with the letters without falling into any traps.
