Capturing the poised intensity of Ken Ueno’s microphone and megaphone performance, this piece finds its essence in the minimal yet deliberate strokes of restraint. The vibrant yellow backdrop radiates vitality, framing Ken’s commanding presence. Behind him, a faintly discernible figure of a boxer emerges, merging into the composition like a spectral echo. Together, they conjure the image of Ken in the throes of a sonic battle—his gestures wielding the microphone like a weapon, his expressions charged with the raw force of amplified declarations. The interplay of motion and stillness encapsulates both the energy of his performance and the quiet tension of his stance.
DJ Rexchen conjures a kaleidoscopic symphony on the turntables, his movements a mesmerizing blur of precision and chaos, like a multi-limbed creature born of sonic alchemy. Each vinyl becomes a fragment in his intricate collage, a portal to an ever-shifting soundscape. His gaze, steadfast and anchored to the grooves, rarely drifts to meet the world beyond, as if the turntables are both his battlefield and sanctuary. In this intense communion with sound, his body becomes an extension of the machine—a rhythmic force harnessing the raw potential of music's fragmented whispers and roars.

Color marker on A4 paper
The lineup at Twenty Alpha unfolded as a night of unbounded expression, each performance a unique voice defying convention. Like unplanned brushstrokes, the textual essence of the evening emerged raw and uneven—chaotically honest, yet unmistakably clear in its intent. This deliberate imperfection exuded a languid charm, as if the words themselves were reclined in introspection. Within their forms, symbols materialized—"cat," "heart," "cross"—amplified beyond their written constraints, transcending the aesthetic boundaries of typography. The result felt like a visual poem, a delicate interplay of meaning and form, where language danced freely between image and idea.

Framed in the mischievous glow of post-ironic meme aesthetics, the promotional poster for Twenty Alpha’s half-price deal is a cheeky wink at youthful exuberance. A prepubescent Justin Bieber, wide-eyed with unshakable belief in the spectacle before him, becomes the unwitting protagonist of this funny tableau. His youthful volatility erupts—a jaw-drop moment as raw as it is relatable. Discounts have never hit this hard. Even the benevolent gaze of Jesus himself is powerless to intervene, rendered a mere bystander to the holy frenzy of bargain-induced ecstasy. It’s salvation, but make it absurd.
Poster design for Twenty Alpha , album review, Dichotomic Language by Yan Jun & Eric Wong, 2024 July
The whistle’s delicate vibrations and sine waves’ undulating purity hover within the record player’s static machinery. Eric Wong arcs his arm through space, a Bluetooth speaker in hand, as sine wave harmonics unravel and decay, their precision softening into entropy. Yan Jun, meanwhile, channels raw intensity, letting it surge through his body like an open conduit. His gestures, fluid and intentional, become a ritual—tuning his voice by aligning with the frequencies coursing through him.
In their distinct yet intertwined performances, each artist shapes their own temporal bubble—a unique "time-in-oneself." These isolated moments trace lines in the shared air, lines that cross and merge into fleeting interactions, fleeting resonances. The overlapping shapes form a choreography of sound and motion, a dance of relative motion where distinct energies momentarily converge before diverging again. This is the poetic mechanics of interplay, where individuality meets fleeting harmony.
