Around a Chinese moon myth, through the change of culture and time - from the east to the west, from ancient time to now - the project tried to assume (not to prove or reason) how the role of the female has been changed, how the history as fact and fiction formed in symbols, and what the disguised hidden desire was, is and will always be. That is the fear and wish to the death. The twitter formed dialog is like spells, incoherent and non-linear, with meanings changed in translation, lost in communication, and mystified in expectation. The program driven a dojo-like installation plays at background, reminding us of any kinds of a ritual that supposed to be deciphered, or vise versa, to remote things so that they could become completely not understandable for the sake of irrationality. Whoever stepped on the moon was a shaman, whom a mediator of reality and fiction, of living and dead, of the past and the present.
