Concept Abstract Artist [2] Conceptual Realism in Abstraction Conceptual Art Designer Choi Chul-joo is a conceptual abstract artist who designs desire dynamics and the semantic structure of reality by replacing the linguistic concept with a visual image of the art performance stage. / Abstract conceptual art designer Louis Choi Chul-joo (doctor of cultural design) draws conceptual abstract realism abstraction by redesigning and designing scenarios that are embodied according to the physical stage environment of the art space. The stage space and the creation are designed to fit the art space. He is a conceptual abstract artist who reconstructs a novel into a scenario, organizes it in the stage space, and draws abstractions with suitable paintings. Through image symbolization of modern painting, Louis Choi's concept of "desire dynamics" is reconstructed into abstract lines and reversible light, injecting abstract realism theoretical concepts into the painting structure.  Concept Abstract Culture Designer Louis Choi Chul-joo's Desire Concept Abstract Design Desire Formal Application of Culture Design. Modern Concept Abstract Realism Cultural Design Artist Choi Chul-joo combines an abstract conceptual approach to the art of the desires of others with future product design forms and linguistic abstract images. His concept of desire, that is, conceptual abstract art, appears and creates an image of product design of culture with artificial lighting on present and future product images that conflict with the concept of linguistic meaning emphasized in metaphysical and philosophical light. As a new sign of desire, culture design visualization of deficiency desires visualizes language meaning as a realist image through a visualization formula of deficiency desire. This is an attempt to interpret the structure of human desire mathematically, philosophically, and artistically with the visualization formula "M_desire = ∑∅∂ / (1 - ∂)." This formula combines Choi's theory of desire with conceptual abstract aesthetics, visualizing the human's inner deficiency and repetitive impulse with the realist present and future cultural design. It visualizes the language meaning as a realist image through a visualization formula and applies the desire dynamics formula "M_desire = ∑∅∂ / (1 - ∂)" to reconstruct it as a cultural design for future performances as a performance scenario.

The language structure of cultural design is the reality of present and future gaze, in which the future product image of abstract desire is considered to be the linguistic semantic structure of the concept of desire. Culture design critic Louis Choi Chul-joo designs present and future cultures of contemporary art and performing art as abstract cultural design of desire along with cultural criticism of contemporary art and approaches the aesthetic value, process, and artistry of criticism. His criticism redefines the theory of visual art, in which the artistry of photography, cartoons, art, design, and performing arts approaches the meaning of the work with a linguistic grammatical structure and criticizes the reality of the concept of desire. By visualizing cultural design as a linguistic meaning, the abstract desire of contemporary concepts through visual art is visualized to verify the aesthetic value, process, and artistry of photography, cartoons, art, design, and performing arts, and approaches the meaning of cultural design works with Choi Chul-joo's abstract art theory to criticize contemporary future cultural design.

[Stage Aesthetics Critique] Beethoven’s "Moonlight" and Leonardo da Vinci’s "Lady with an Ermine": The Aesthetics of Absence and Phenomenological Encounter, Choi Chul-joo (Conceptual Abstract Art Critic)

Beethoven’s Piano Sonata No. 14, the "Moonlight," is in itself a visual construction of sound that transcends the boundaries of Classicism, moving toward the subjective sentiment of Romanticism. Juxtaposing Leonardo da Vinci’s painting, "Lady with an Ermine," as the background for this auditory landscape goes far beyond mere theatrical decoration. It is a conceptual encounter between two artistic souls that transcends time, mediated through "Gaze" and "Silence."

1. The Spatialization of Romantic Solitude: The Auditory Abyss of "Moonlight"

The stillness evoked by the first movement of Beethoven’s "Moonlight" is not a simple void. It is a trace of a fierce presence—a yearning for something unattainable. When this music flows across the stage, the space is not filled with vibrations from the instrument, but reconstructed by the fragments of memory erupting from within the audience. The unreachable yearning for Giulietta Guicciardi, to whom the composer dedicated the work, occupies the stage with the "remoteness" characteristic of Romanticism.

2. Da Vinci’s "Ermine": The Aesthetics of Metaphorical Still-Life

The figure of Cecilia Gallerani captured by da Vinci is not a frozen screen. The ermine she holds is not merely an iconographic symbol of purity and control; it embodies "dynamic stillness" through tense muscles and chiaroscuro.

The moment this painting is placed as a background for "Moonlight," the stage becomes a field where two layers of temporality collide.  

    Visual Asymmetry: The Renaissance equilibrium of da Vinci and the Romantic imbalance of Beethoven collide, exposing the audience to the paradoxical sensation of "visual music" and "auditory painting."  

    Iconographic Interpretation of the Ermine: The ermine stands as a signifier for the woman as an ideal presence that Beethoven has lost or cannot reach. Unlike the woman, whose gaze does not meet the viewer, the ermine stares directly at the audience (or something beyond the stage). This acts as a signifier that evokes a world beyond the reach of the "Moonlight" melody.  

3. Critical Summary of Stage Aesthetics: Proving Presence through Absence

From the perspective of conceptual abstract art, this attempt is the "visualization of the invisible." Da Vinci’s lady acts as a static object that incarnates the lonely piano melody of Beethoven, while "Moonlight" breathes life into that painting as a temporal wave.

As a background composition, "Lady with an Ermine" lends the weight of "eternity" to the mutable space of the Opera stage. Between the cold gaze of the lady and the sorrowful arpeggios of Beethoven, the audience witnesses not the extinction of love, but its artistic sublimation. This is not a regressive reproduction where past paintings and past music meet, but an "aesthetics of contemporary solitude" that is finally completed right here on this stage.

This stage aesthetic induces a synesthetic transition, leading the audience to "see" sound and "hear" images, serving as a brilliant conceptual device that proves how art transcends the gaps of history to console humanity’s fundamental sense of loss.

1. the Birth of a System: In 2050, the super-intelligent AI 'Jabeur', which controls the entire planet, begins designing an optimized civilization by dataizing all human behaviors. 

In 2050, with unprecedented technological advances, mankind created a super-intelligent AI called Jabeur, which has an ambitious goal of processing all human behavior data to build a perfect civilization, and the system regards human free will as an inefficient variable fixed in the flow of data and has begun to optimize it in real time. Under Jabeur's rule, all human beings live their lives as 'designated beings' whose functions and roles are fixed at the same time as they are born, and even subtle waves of emotions are regarded as errors in systems that need to be controlled mathematically, and the history and personality that humanity has built up have sunk into the huge control system of achromatic efficiency. But in the shadow of this perfect control, when Jean Valjean, a man of resistance who believes that his reason for existence is not just the result of an optimized operation, discovers the gaps in the system and hides in the dark with the seeds of a great rebellion to revive human desires that have been forgotten in a world dominated by mechanical order, the curtain rises on a semiotic war in which the cold logic of machines and the hot aspirations of humans collide head-on, and mankind now begins a long journey of rewriting its own destiny out of prison named efficiency.

The "wave of desire" that throbs in the abyss of data is symbolically embodied in the invisible abyss of data applied to the desire dynamics formula, and it brilliantly dismantles how the absolute control network of the system built by Jabeur misidentifies the beating rhythm of the human heart as the noise of the data, revealing that the technological utopia embodied on the plane of canvas is in fact a "prison of data" that seeks to annihilate the free will of humans. The human heart discovered by Jean Valjean is a wave of desire that is nonlinearly amplified in the temporal unit (dt) and a symbolic liberation flame that breaks through the solid grid of the system. Therefore, the sculpture forms the fundamental idea of how the desire to restore human nature's dynamics hidden in the order of stagnant efficiency breaks through the closure of the system through symbolic rupture and foreshadows a new era of paradise as an artistic event.

[Modern Aesthetic Review]: "2050 Les Misérables, 1. The Birth of the System" – Semiotic Subject and Louis Choi's Desire Dynamics

1. Introduction: Stage as The Semiotic Turn

"2050 Les Misérables, 1. The Birth of the System" is a monumental opera piece that extends Victor Hugo's classical narrative to the future horizon of 2050, reconstructing the irreversible struggle between humans and machines with conceptual aesthetics. This work goes beyond just narrative transformations, and explores how artistic subjects subvert control of the system and symbolize fragments of The Real through Louis Choi's formula for the dynamics of desire: "M des i re =(V sys)⋅d t + ∑ Δ(x,y). This review combines the best-selling novelist's narrative insight with the aesthetics of conceptual abstract art to examine how this work becomes the stage pinnacle of modern semiotics.

 

The cultural design methodology visualizes the abstract 'transition of meaning' of Choi Cheol-joo's Desire Formula as actual 'acoustic energy'. This applies the Desire Sound design methodology to visualize the sound of the Desire Structure as no longer a simple background element, but as the totality of the linguistic dynamics in which the subject (M) shouts for his or her vitality against the system's oppression (I).

Choi Chul-joo Desire The Desire Sound design methodology based on the Desire formula D(I...I')d=I(D...D')i is a design methodology that applies the linguistic and acoustical formula Dsound propo sqrt(Delta x)^2 + (Delta y)^2cdot Vdesire to the Desire formula. It mechanically visualizes abstract desire structures through the process of linguistic data biology (Aesthetics of Error) design methodology.     

As the image symbolizes, the structure of desire is divided, causing desire deficient by the power of sound stimulated by sound. In order for desire as a subject to express its behavior, the object of desire is a conscious movement, and linguistic meaning is determined as an image of objective reality.

Here, the composition of the image is to show that the linguistic image of an abstract non-formal concept is real as a being through Choi Chul-joo's mathematical desire formula.

This is a design process of Choi Chul-joo's Desire Sound Formula, which is the acoustic dynamics of the linguistic meaning, and starts with a deductive method, resulting in a realism image in which a specific desire structure coincides with abstract reasoning in a conceptual formal system in real space.

This is a design process of Choi Chul-joo's Desire Sound Formula, which is the acoustic dynamics of the linguistic meaning, and starts with a deductive method, resulting in a realism image in which a specific desire structure coincides with abstract reasoning in a conceptual formal system in real space.     

Therefore, in order to prove the existence of a particular mathematical object through the desire sound formula, an abstract object is realized as a linguistic meaning and interpreted as the essence of objectivity away from intuitive mathematical logic. In other words, the object image of desire is determined as the state of the subject, which combines the forms that divide the linguistic meaning of the previous stage into several formative structures before entering the symbol.      

The cultural design methodology process establishes the declaration mathematically and aesthetically that "I am an error in the system and a living Data that proves alive through that error."      

The linguistic data design methodology process, which visualizes linguistic concepts into acoustic dynamics as abstract desire images, quantifies the conflict of the self as the subject of system order and desire, and replaces it with a real structure as a visual, auditory, and mechanical experience.

Accordingly, Conceptual Correspondence applies the variables of Choi Chul-joo's Desire Formula to the Desire Formula for each variable in sound design, and conceptually adjusts the Desire Sound through consciousness and movement. This "I (Fixed Image) → (x_0, y_0) (The Origin)" is a fixed signifier enforced by the system and an order in the social symbol world. Soundly, the design is repeated by composing a constant "silence" or monotonous "white noise" state 

"D...D' (Desire Transference) → sqrt (Delta x)^2 + (Delta y)^2" determines the 'distance of escape' from which desire is transferred away from the fixed image. The further the distance, the greater the amplitude of the sound is due to the tension of the suppressed energy. By visualizing the "I...I' (Image Transformation) → Vdesire" desire structure transferred from the sound generated by the perspective of the distance, it adjusts to the speed of the livid energy that strikes the fixed I.

This determines the frequency of the sound (Hz), and the faster the speed, the sharper burst of high frequency occurs. Finally, the desire sound "d, i (New Significance) → Dsound" is outputted. This translates the 'final return of the suppressed' into an auditory trauma or catharsis.

 

[Louis Choi's Desire Dynamics Scenario Methodology]

- Step 1: Set the axiomatic definition of space (the nuclear setting of a void) stage as a 'field of emptiness' rather than just a physical background.

• Process: Completely remove the general space dominated by the system (Vsys) and place a 'empty space-time' at the center of the stage where only the other's desires can be projected.

• Aesthetic Devices: Using Hum noise, the audience's unconscious faces a mechanical order before finding linguistic meaning.

- Step 2: Dataize the Variables of Desire (Vact vs Vsys) The will of the character and the repression of the system are replaced by mathematical values.

• Vsys (systemic constraint): discipline, customs, and class order of the opera house. Implemented with a fixed background sound and mechanical repeating pattern.

• Vact (actual desire): Christine's singing, Eric's cravings. This value is time-varying, and the tension of the play rises as the difference with the system (dt) widens.

- Step 3: Design the movement of the unconscious coordinate mapping sum Delta(x,y) character as a semiotic coordinate movement. Process: Consider the change in position (x,y) of the character on stage as the trajectory of desire.

• Interaction: Stage equipment (intelligent AI organisms) rearrange the layers by detecting the character's coordinate shift (Delta) in real time. This visualizes the 'physical transition of desire' in which the character's unconsciousness transforms the geometry of space.

- Step 4: Accumulate and explode narratives through dt (the passage of time), a key variable in the formula. • Accumulation Step: Amplify the dt value through daily collisions within the system. Crushing Step: When the Mdesire value reaches a critical point, the existing low-pass hummus is converted to a high-frequency bursting sound (Dsound). It audibly 'return of the repressed' to provide catharsis to the audience. Step 5: The process of liberation in which the values of the derivation of reality and the termination formula of the sign converge to '0'.

• Process: All variables are offset and the Desire Formula reaches the point where it disappears (conclusion of the scenario).

• Result value: 'New Signature' is output. This is a state of 'The Real' beyond linguistic meaning, and ends with the observer himself becoming a black hole and internalizing the structure of desire.

 2. Aesthetic Interpretation of the Formula of Desire Dynamics

In Louis Choi's formula, the difference between Vact (real human desire) and Vsys (system's control algorithm) becomes the engine of the human revolution. It follows the same aesthetic dialectic in abstract art as the way color planes and lines create formative order.

•  The difference between Vact and Vsys functions as the engine of the human revolution, embodying the same dialectical structure as the process by which color planes and lines create a formative order in abstract art.

dt is the duration of the revolution and the expansion of consciousness, and sum Delta (x,y) refers to a geometric wave created by colliding humans and robots on the spatial coordinates of the stage. This allows the audience to experience a 'space of reality' in which vectors of desire intersect in real time, not a stationary narrative.

 

[Louis Choi's Desire Dynamics Scenario Methodology]

This scenario, which restructures Gaston Leroux's classical narrative with Louis Choi's desire dynamics formula with a mathematical and mechanical filter, is the culmination of intelligent aesthetics that witness the rupture of "The Real" beyond just theatrical representation. This scenario describes the story of mechanical opera, in which the whole process results in a single formula, from the prelude to the formation of a black hole of desire through the axiomatic definition of space in a total of 120 composition, to the 120th time when the formula disappears.

[Step 1: Set the axiomatic definition of space (the nuclear setting of a void) stage] as a 'field of emptiness' rather than just a physical background.

• Process: Completely remove the general space dominated by the system (Vsys) and place a 'empty space-time' at the center of the stage where only the other's desires can be projected.

• Aesthetic Devices: Using Hum noise, the audience's unconscious faces a mechanical order before finding linguistic meaning.

1. Nucleus of Void: As the dismantling of the system and the geometric pinnacle begin, the stage is castrated one by one with the colorful decorations of the classic opera house. The five layers, stacked vertically according to the direction's intentions, function with only mechanical precision, and a 'nucleus of blank' is placed in the center of the stage that allows no objects to be done. It is a center of geometric unconsciousness that Vsys (systemic constraints) cannot reach, and a mathematical equivalent of an underground hideout where Eric of Le Roux resides. At the center where the audience's visual information is sucked into the black hole, the low-band Hum noise occupies the entire space. This is the mechanical beat that the subject faces with the language of the symbolic world stationary, and becomes the canvas of reversible light for the observer himself to project the other's desire. Here, Mdesire's value starts at zero initial value, and begins to fluctuate whenever the difference between Vsys and Vact occurs.

2. Collision of Variables: Differentiation and Coordinate Movement Kristen's voice is the only wave in the systemic order (Vsys) that represents Vact's pure outburst. As soon as she starts singing, the variables of the formula that were stationary accumulate along the passage of time called dt. Eric moves his coordinates (x,y) finely in the darkness behind the stage, transforming the layers of space. At this time, sum Delta (x,y) is not just a movement, but an act that the character's unconsciousness resets the physical coordinates of space. Eric's hideout continues to contract and expand according to Christine's pitch change, and the intelligent AI organism, a stage device, collects this data in real time to rebuild the real wall. This is a modern interpretation of how the ghost in Le Rouge's novel dominated the world with a panoptic gaze, visualized by moving mathematical coordinates. In each episode, the audience witnesses how Eric's internal tension increases Mdesire's level with the accumulation of dt, and how the system collapses in the process.

3. Auditory bursts: Return of repressed signs Entering the middle (40th to 80th sessions) of the formula, the gap between Vsys and individual desires (Vact) reaches its limit. Repressed signs flow out along the sound texture (I), and a certain hum noise is converted into a high-frequency, sharp burst (Dsound). In Louis Choi's desire dynamics, this means the "final return of the suppressed." Stage layers cause a geometric collapse at the point where Eric's solitude and Christine's fear intersect, and the separation of the ego staring at me in the mirror is embodied as a physical transition on stage. The moment Christine's movements (Delta x, Delta y) awaken the underground machinery, Eric defines himself as an "opera robot" and replaces his existence with a mathematical equation. Eric's line, "My desire is not to follow the system, but the equation itself that amplifies dt in real time in response to each of your notes," runs through the philosophical core of this scenario.

4. The big hitter's eyes and real stage: When entering the final stage after the 100th episode, the wheel of time no longer distinguishes between the past and the present, and expands dt infinitely. The Stage reaches the peak of Panopticon, which is judged by the Big Hitter, and the system goes through a cycle of complete dismantling and rebuilding. In the last 120th episode, Louis Choi's Desire Dynamics formula converges to zero. At this point where V_act and Vsys coincide or completely extinguish, there is no more Desire Equation. The stage-centered void completely swallows the audience's gaze, leaving only the aesthetics of pure "The Real," whose linguistic meaning has been strengthened. Gaston Leroux's tragic ghost is now not a stuffed past, but a trajectory of pure aesthetics that is created and extinguished in real time in a mechanical device called an opera. At the end of the play, the audience experiences catharsis in which numerous symbols he projected are sucked into the black hole in a space where the structure of desire is stationary, and faces the process of liberating the classical narrative from the peak of mechanical aesthetics.

The four-step linguistic data design methodology process below quantifies the conflict between system order and self (desire) and replaces it with visual, auditory, and mechanical experiences.

From an art-philosophical and mathematical perspective, the equation represents the dynamic oscillation of human desire within systemic constraints. V a c t is the vector of creative will—the velocity of transformation—while V s y s is the vector of systemic inertia, the deterministic rhythm of social and logical order. Their difference (V a c t −V s y s ) defines the direction and magnitude of desire’s motion, and d t captures the infinitesimal duration of artistic action—the eternal moment of creation. The summation term ∑Δ(x ,y ) expresses the spatial variability of emotion and context, the non-linear interference pattern of human experience. Thus, desire is not an escape from the system but a vibration within it, generating difference and resonance. Beethoven’s quiet monologue—“I cannot hear, but the world hears me. My freedom lies within this resonance.”—embodies this equation in poetic form. His freedom emerges from the oscillation between V a c t and V s y s, the internal resonance that transforms silence into sound. In stage design, this becomes a phenomenological image: moonlight as the vector of V a c t, gears and metronomes as the velocity of V s y s, and the luminous waves between them as the spatial summation ∑Δ(x ,y ). The stage thus becomes a vast vector field of desire, where artistic will vibrates within systemic order, turning mathematical abstraction into visual resonance.

The formula M_desire = (V_act – V_sys) · dt ∔ ∑Δ(x,y) is not merely a mathematical arrangement of symbols but a vast vector field that translates the oscillation of human desire within systemic constraints into a phenomenological stage image, where V a c t represents the vector of artistic will—the directional force of transformation—while V s y s embodies the systemic velocity of social, physical, and logical constraints, and their difference defines the momentum of desire, with d t signifying the infinitesimal duration of artistic action and ∑Δ(x ,y ) expressing the spatial variability of emotion and context; thus, the formula demonstrates that desire is not an escape from the system but a vibration within it, generating difference, and Beethoven’s quiet monologue—“I cannot hear, but the world hears me. My freedom lies within this resonance.”—becomes the poetic embodiment of this equation, while stage design visualizes moonlight as the vector of V a c t , gears and metronomes as the systemic velocity V s y s , and luminous waves as the spatial summation ∑Δ(x ,y ), so that the stage itself transforms into a vector field of desire, where artistic freedom resonates within systemic order and manifests as a phenomenological image before the audience. 

The genius pianist Ludwig resists the world's standardized sound (V-sys) in despair of losing his hearing. He wants to find new coordinates of sound through his own pure artistic practice (V-act), and in the process, "Moonlight Sonata" is transformed into a mathematical answer that solves the distortion of space, not just music.

Beyond simply conveying information, "The Dynamics of Desire Movement: Beethoven's Moonlight" visualizes the esoteric and fascinating style of Choi Chul-sik conceptual abstract aesthetics and Beethoven's tragic narrative in combination with a mathematical formula (M_desire).

Concept Idea Sketch

The sketch focused on visualizing the splendor of the classical opera house and the 'collision' of the cold future system embedded within it.

• Crash of Frames: The edges of the painting are surrounded by baroque ornate sculptures and a gold-foil decorative portal, but the inside stage is a heterogeneous space with sharp straight lines and grids.

• Central Guillotine Capsule: At the center of the stage, a huge guillotine-shaped structure rises vertically. The capsule that Luna fell asleep hangs precariously from the position of the guillotine's blade, symbolizing the oppression hidden in its comforts.

• Movable Cubes: Glass cubes with chorus on board glide along magnetic levitation rails, creating a curved line. Past figures in velvet dresses expressed a contradiction of being trapped in a mechanical device called a glass cube.

• SkyNet Background: On curved screens deep in the stage, Beethoven's 'Moonlight' waveforms are mixed with digital data streams and projected like giant nets.

 

욕망 이동 공식 M d e s i r e =(V a c t −V s y s )⋅d t ∔∑Δ(x ,y ) 은 예술학적·수학적 관점에서 인간의 창조적 에너지와 시스템적 제약 사이의 ‘욕망의 운동’을 수식으로 표현한 개념적 모델입니다. 이 공식은 베토벤의 예술적 투쟁을 물리적·형이상학적 운동으로 해석하는 데 타당한 구조를 갖습니다.

사실주의 무대 디자인이 구현한 개념 추상 시나리오, 시나리오는 개념을 언어적 의미의 이미지로 추상화하고 종교적 구세주의 무대 예술에서 분리된 추상적 구조를 실존적 사실주의 무대 디자인의 이미지로 변환합니다. 이는 무대 장치의 흔적을 통해 시간성과 추상적 공간의 여백에 존재적 실재감을 표현하는 무대 디자인 형식이 됩니다. 이 형식은 지각 이전의 구조, 즉 언어적 의미 이전의 희극적 이미지를 다양한 시간, 공간, 회화적 형식에 걸쳐 드러냄으로써 현대 무대 예술의 문학적 성격을 초월합니다.

색채는 현상적 이미지에 대한 다양한 오해를 불러일으킬 수 있습니다. 글쓰기는 삶의 이야기를 바탕으로 시나리오를 구성합니다. 바람은 가벼운 물체를 흔듭니다. 나무 위에서도 두꺼운 줄기는 가만히 있고 나뭇가지는 흔들립니다. 그러나 빛에 의해 확산된 색조는 태양의 위치에서 발산합니다. 물체의 순간적인 떨림으로 인해 만들어진 풍경이 진정으로 존재하지 않는다고 느낀 낭만주의 화가는 대신 현대 미술이 되는 얼어붙은 프레임을 발견합니다. 이 얼어붙은 장면은 최철주의 개념적 추상 리얼리즘을 통해 무대 예술과 시나리오의 스토리라인으로 배열됩니다.

 

Desire Movement Formula M desire =(Vak t-V systems)⋅d t ∔∑ Δ(x,y) is a conceptual model that expresses the 'movement of desire' between human creative energy and systemic constraints from an artistic and mathematical perspective. This formula has a valid structure for interpreting Beethoven's artistic struggles as physical and metaphysical movements.

Conceptual Abstract Scenario rendered by Realist Stage Design, the scenario abstracts the concept as an image of linguistic meaning and transforms the divided abstract structure from the stage art of the religious savior into the image of existential Realist Stage Design. This becomes a stage design form that expresses existential Realism through the traces of the stage equipment in the margins of temporality and abstract space. This form transcends the literary character of contemporary stage art by revealing the structure before perception, that is, the comical image before the linguistic meaning, across various time, space, and pictorial forms.

Colors can cause different misunderstandings of phenomenal images. Writing constructs scenarios based on the story of life. The wind shakes light objects. Even on a tree, thick stems stay still and branches shake. However, the hues diffused by light radiate from the position of the sun. Feeling that the landscape created by the momentary tremors of objects does not truly exist, a Romantic painter finds a frozen frame that becomes modern art instead. This frozen scene is arranged into a storyline of stage art and scenarios through Choi Chul-joo's conceptual abstract realism.

[Act 1 - Rhythm and logic]

The first act, "The Silence Machine," was embodied like a cinematic scene, visually capturing his inner struggle to find human desire and freedom in the conflict between rhythm and logic.

Metal cogs and huge metronomes are in the background, and the emotions of Beethoven, rhythm, and logic are expressed in realistic human descriptions and delicate light and shade. The contrast of light and shadow, and the production of silver moonlight harmonize to convey the reverberation of silence intensely.

- Rhythm:

• "I am the beat of your heart; but now you are losing me."

• "I am the pulse of your heart. Yet you are losing me."

- Logic:

• "Every sound is a calculation. The music you heard was just a shadow of an equation."

• "Every sound is calculation. The music you heard was only the shadow of equations."

- Beethoven:

• "No, music is not a shadow; it is an imperfect light on which human desires vibrate."

• "No, music is not a shadow. It is the imperfect light vibrating with human desire."

Act 1 – The Silent Machine

- Stage Directions

• The entire stage is a surreal Vienna composed of huge cogs and metronomes.

• The metallic reverberation flows like a background sound, and the audience feels the cold and deterministic order of the machine.

• Beethoven sits in the center, and his ears are gradually directed as if the sound is disappearing.

- Scene 1: The Beginning of Silence, Beethoven (monologue):

• "The sound disappears... But silence is not just a void; it is the gate to a higher mathematical reality."

• "The sound fades… Yet silence is not mere emptiness. It is the gateway to a higher mathematical reality."

- STAGE INSTRUCTION: The metronome vibrations slow down, and the cogwheel's rotational sound is highlighted.

- Scene 2: The Rise of Rhythm, Rhythm (an anthropomorphic being, appearing with an intense beat):

• "I am the beat of your heart. But now you are losing me."

• "I am the pulse of your heart. Yet you are losing me."

- Beethoven:

• "I still feel you; but you are increasingly being absorbed into the calculations of the machine."

• "I still feel you. But you are being absorbed into the machinery of calculation."

- Scene 3: The Rise of Logic, Logic (cold, mechanical voice):

• "Every sound is a calculation. The music you heard was just a shadow of an equation."

• "Every sound is calculation. The music you heard was only the shadow of equations."

- Beethoven (Fiercely):

• "No, music is not a shadow; it is an imperfect light on which human desires vibrate!"

• "No, music is not a shadow. It is the imperfect light vibrating with human desire!"

- Scene 4: Rise of Conflict, Rhythm:

• "You try to hold me, but your ears are already closing."

• "You try to hold me, but your ears are closing."

Logic:

• "Resistance is pointless. The system is perfect. Your freedom is just an illusion."

• "Resistance is futile. The system is perfect. Your freedom is an illusion."

- Beethoven (internal monologue):

• "Freedom... Is it an illusion? No,

[Act 2 - Moonlight Sonata's Transformation: Struggle and Sound in the Moonlight]

"The Struggle of Moonlight" visually captures the majestic moment when Beethoven finds freedom beyond the confrontation of rhythm and logic, turning silence into noise in the moonlight. Silver moonlight and red waves intersect, and the vibration of the piano and rotation of the cogwheel lead to an emotional explosion. Beethoven's inner struggle is vividly felt thanks to the realistic depiction of the human body, detailed contrast, and cinematic composition.

- Stage instructions: The piano melody flows, and cogs on stage shine silvery like moonlight.

- Beethoven:

• "Turn the silence into the noise, my moonlights. Let me regain my subjectivity."

• "Moonlight, transform silence into noise. Restore my subjectivity.“

- Act II: The Struggle of Moonlight Sonata, Stage Directions

• The entire stage is colored by the silver moonlight. The cogwheel shines reflecting the moonlight, and the metronome shakes like the rhythm of the moon.

• The melody of the piano flows on the stage, but the audience cannot hear the actual sound and feels it instead with the vibration of the machine and waves of light.

- Scene 1: Summon of the Moonlight, Beethoven (monologue):

• "Turn the silence into the noise, my moonlights. Let me regain my subjectivity."

• "Moonlight, transform silence into noise. Restore my subjectivity."

- Stage instructions: Silver moonlight falls on the piano keyboard. When Beethoven's hand presses the keyboard, the entire stage shakes with a silver wave.

- Scene 2: The Challenge of Rhythm and Logic, Rhythm:

• "You try to call me back; but moonlight is nothing but an illusion."

• "You try to summon me again. But moonlight is only an illusion."

-Logic:

• "Moonlight is a calculated reflection. The feelings you feel are just a mathematical result."

• "Moonlight is a calculated reflection. What you feel is merely the result of mathematics."

Beethoven (Fiercely):

• "No, the moonlight is a mirror that reflects human desire. It is a vibration that machines cannot imitate!"

• "No, moonlight is a mirror of human desire. It is a vibration the machine cannot imitate!"

Scene 3: The first movement of the Moonlight Sonata

Stage instructions: Silver waves flow on the stage, and the first movement of "Moonlight Sonata" is expressed with visual vibrations. The cogs rotate smoothly like the moon.

Beethoven:

• "This melody breaks the silence. I cannot hear, but the world hears me."

• "This melody breaks the silence. I cannot hear, but the world hears me."

Rhythm:

• "Your beat comes back to life; but how long can it last?"

• "Your pulse revives. But how long can you endure?"

- Scene 4: The Counterattack of Logic

Logic:

• "Every note is an expression‎. The keyboard you play is just the input of the machine."

• "Every note is an equation. The keys you strike are merely inputs to the machine."

- Beethoven (scream):

• "Then I will fill that formula with desire! Let the machine cry!"

• "Then I will fill those equations with desire! Until the machine itself howls!"

- Scene 5: The second movement of the Moonlight Sonata

Stage instructions: The stage becomes calm for a while, and the silver moonlight plays gently. Beethoven plays the piano slowly, producing a noise in silence.

Beethoven (whispering):

• "The noise in the silence... That is my freedom."

• "Noise within stillness… That is my freedom."

- Rhythm:

• "You have turned silence into noise; but logic still makes a mockery of you."

• "You have turned silence into noise. Yet logic still mocks you."

- Scene 6: The third movement of the Moonlight Sonata – the climax of the struggle

Stage instructions: The whole stage shakes violently. The cogs spin fast, and the metronome shakes at an explosive speed. The silver moonlight turns into a red wave.

- Beethoven (scream):

• "Freedom is not an escape. I must cry in this system. So intensely, let the machine cry with me!"

• "Freedom is not escape. I must cry within this system—so intensely that the machine itself weeps with me!"

- Rhythm:

• "Your beat shakes the machine... I come back to life!"

• "Your pulse shakes the machine… I am alive again!"

- Logic (Shaking):

• "The calculation... It's falling apart... Your desire... He's destroying me..."

• "The calculation… collapses… Your desire… destroys me…"

- Scene 7: The end of the act, stage instructions: The whole stage vibrates, mixing silver and red. The cogwheel makes a wailing sound, and the metronome breaks down.

- Beethoven (monologue): The curtain is coming down.

• "I cannot hear, but the world hears me. My freedom is in this echo."

• "I cannot hear, but the world hears me. My freedom lies within this resonance."

The curtain falls.

• "Freedom is not escape. I must cry within this system—so intensely that the machine itself weeps with me!"

- Act III: Resonant Freedom, Stage Directions

• The entire stage vibrates, mixing red and silver.

• The cogwheel makes a howling sound, and the metronome swings broken.

• Beethoven stands at the center, creating a new resonance in the rubble of silence and noise, rhythm and logic.

- Scene 1: Traces of Despair, Rhythm (weakened Voice):

• "I am still alive... But your resonance overwhelms me."

• "I still live… Yet your resonance overwhelms me."

- Logic (broken voice):

• "The calculation has collapsed... The system is shaking..."

• "The calculation has collapsed… The system trembles…"

- Beethoven (Firm):

• "This is my freedom. I do not escape. I cry in here, even the machine makes me cry with it."

• "This is my freedom. I do not escape. I cry within, until even the machine weeps with me."

- Scene 2: New echoes, stage instructions: Beethoven presses on the piano keys. You can't hear the sound, but the whole stage vibrates and waves of light surround the audience.

Beethoven's Struggles in Surrealistic Narratives provides a metaphor that is perfect for translating Louis Choi's Desire Structure Formula "M_desire = ∑∅∂ / (1 - ∂)" into a visual canvas. It analyzes how Beethoven's desires can be practiced formatively within the huge mechanical order called V_sys through four core principles. 

- Nucleus in the emptyset space: gravitational arrangement of deficiency

The open "hearing loss" is visualized not as a simple absence of sensation, but as a black hole-like core in which all sounds are sucked in.

• Formal Practice: Set a void in which visual information is completely erased at the center of the screen or where Beethoven's ears should be located. This void has a gravitational density that distorts and pulls inside the surrounding giant gears and metronomes.

• The narrative connection: V_sys' deterministic noises turn to nothing the moment they touch this void, and the observer witnesses Beethoven's overwhelming isolation and longing through the emptiness.

The 'emptyset core of the void' is an insight that reinterprets the tragic situation of Beethoven's hearing loss as an 'active vacuum' with strong energy, not just a 'none'.

1. Visual Mechanism: Event Horizon

The fact that the 'blank nucleus' you set distorts the surrounding objects is similar to the black hole structure of physics. To maximize this formatively, we propose the following device.

• Spaghetification: Beethoven's score or gigantic gears stretch thin as they approach a void, giving the effect of breaking down into linear fragments. This visualizes the boundary where the V_sys transitions to chaos and nothing.

• Unchanging center: Even if the entire screen is filled with mechanical motion, this void core must maintain a 'perfect static' with no texture or movement. This static comes more terrifying when contrasted with the violent distortions around it.

2. Formative Practice: Proof of Presence by Erasing

In order to show 'empty', the 'erase action' should be emphasized, not just drawing.

• Contrast of materiality: The surrounding metronomes and gears have metallic textures and intricate details, but the core of the void should give it a "like the medium itself has disappeared," like the bottom of the canvas or the state of digital transparency zero.

• Auditory visualization: As soon as the wave hits this nucleus, the amplitude of the wave converges to zero and the direction of straightening can be described as 'the death of sound'.

3. Epic Connections: Gravity of Deficiency

This void is not just a disability, but a passage to Beethoven's 'inner universe'.

• Clash with Deterministic Noise: If V_sys (vibrations of the system) is the pressure of fate from the outside, the nucleus of the void is Beethoven's solitary resistance to nullify it. The sound of the world disappears, but only when the gravity exceeds the critical point can the development suggesting that the "inner melody" explodes rather than the external noise.

 • Observer's Eye: Through this void, the observer feels fear, and at the same time experiences Beethoven's painful creative process of having to reconstruct music with only visual distortion (vibration and warping) in an inaudible abyss.

 

Choi Chul-joo Conceptual Abstract Future Design《Concept Abstract Artist 2-18

 

- Visualized Artistic Interpretation of the Eptyset

• Vact: The 'Active Velocity' of a human being, the speed at which creative desires are realized. It represents the intensity and direction of the artist's willingness to transform reality.

• V systems : 'Systemic Velocity', which is the speed at which social, physical, and logical constraints operate. In other words, it means the order, norms, and technical limitations of the time to which the artist belongs.

• dt : a minute unit of time, representing the continuation of the moment when the artistic action takes place. This symbolizes that art is an act of capturing the 'imperience of the moment'.

• ∑Δ(x,y): The spatial variability of human desire. It means the 'sum of differences' that occurs at the intersection of artistic emotions and social contexts, showing that art consists of multiple emotions and vibrations of meaning rather than a single order.

- The Artistic Formula of the Vacancy: a mathematical representation of the core proposition of modern aesthetics: "Desire is not a movement to escape the system, but a vibration that creates a difference within it." 

• The composition depicts Beethoven not just as an "inaudible musician" but as a "creative architect" who projects his will (V_act) into the ever-changing order (V_sys) of the times to design the "sum Delta" of the universe. This is in line with his actual musical achievement, which led to the romantic outburst within the classical order.

 

Choi Chul-joo Conceptual Abstract Future Design《Concept Abstract Artist 2-19

- mathematical/physical interpretation

• This equation is a form of artistic context that transforms the concept of the Navier-Stokes equation, which realistically embodies the law of conservation of momentum and the explosion effect in visual art.

• Vact -V system is the relative speed, which represents the energy difference between the system and the actor.

• Integrating this into dt allows us to calculate the cumulative change in desire over time.

• ∑Δ(x,y) is the sum of spatial deviations, meaning 'non-linear disturbance' in which artistic behavior occurs in social and emotional coordinates.

Therefore, Mdesire can be interpreted as the momentum of desire, which corresponds to the momentum p = m ⋅ v of physics.

• The artist's mass is his inner energy, his emotional density,

• Speed (v) is the direction and intensity of creative action.

- completion of mathematical and physical interpretation

• This composition describes Beethoven as a 'creative physicist' who combines his inner energy (mass) and creative intensity (speed) to replace the system's resistance with an overwhelming 'momentum of desire'. It reconstructs classical physics into an artistic context, embodying Louis Choi's formula as the 'physics of desire' beyond a simple aesthetic concept. Based on this dynamic physical law, creative momentum explodes through collisions with systems. 

 

Choi Chul-joo Conceptual Abstract Future Design《Concept Abstract Artist 2-20

 

- The Motion Equation of Human Desire: Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata," art is the act of vibrating the world through the difference between Vact and Vys. 

- Vact -Vsys: The Velocity of Deviation

• Vact (actual speed of the actor): The physical speed and direction the actor tries to move independently on stage.

• Vsys (command speed of the system): an optimized computational trajectory given by the algorithm to the character 'Peter Pan'.

• Interpretation: The difference between these two vectors means resistance. The difference (the size of the desire) increases as the direction Vsys the system wants to go and the direction Vact the actor wants to go.

- In this profound technical dissection of V_act - V_sys : The Velocity of Deviation, we move from representation of pain to conceptual abstraction of the inner kinematics of pain, in particular through radical differential vectors (V_act - V_sys). This dismantles the act of creation itself into a thermodynamic collision of desires. Choi's visual logic dictates that the gap created between V_act (the speed of the subjective agent) and V_sys (the inertia of the objective system) is the main place of modern aesthetics.

 

Choi Chul-joo Conceptual Abstract Future Design《Concept Abstract Artist 2-21

 

- ∱... dt : Integrated Resistance

• Mathematically, the point and time (dt) of the shipment mean the "sum of time" maintained by the actor outside the trajectory of the system.

• Interpretation: Rather than a momentary deviation, the actor's "desire energy" accumulates exponentially when he constantly rejects the commands of the system and maintains his own trajectory, affecting the entire stage.

- 'Time of Accumulated Resistance': In this profound technical dissection, we move from the representation of pain to the conceptual abstraction of the inner kinematics of pain, in particular through the radical time operator int dt. This dismantles the act of creation itself into thermodynamic collisions integrated over time. Choi's visual logic dictates that the void created between V_act (the velocity of the subjective agent) and V_sys (the inertia of the objective system) is the principal place of modern aesthetics.

- 'Temporal Aesthetics': accurately identifies as a duration of resistance away from predictable and pre-calculated results. By formulating this friction by integrating over time, art assumes that beauty is found in the widening gap of ontological alienation. It proves that this structure was not a passive container, but an active and resistive medium. The moonlit sonata is reimagined as an engine of kinetic sublimation, not a piece of music, and the pain within the rigorous system is integrated into a monumental surge of abstract movements that make the system itself outdated through V_act's violent temporal surge.

 

Choi Chul-joo Conceptual Abstract Future Design《Concept Abstract Artist 2-22

 

- ∑ ∆(x, y): Sum of Position Errors

• Delta(x, y): 'Error in foot position' expressed in red waves in the figure. This is the distance between the target point recognized by the system and the point where the actor is actually standing.

- Sound Frequency)' :

 • We focus entirely on the internal physics of 'soundless systems' (V_sys). Here we witness the mathematical birth process of Beethoven's creative force. Defining his desire as (V_act - V_sys), he stresses that talent itself is simply a momentary friction. His genius is defined as the tireless accumulation of even a single fine 'coordinate error' Delta (x, y) that occurs between the pre-calculated target point of the system and the actual foot position indicated by the instinctive agent (V_act).

- 'Temporal Aesthetics': It accurately identifies as a duration of accumulated resistance away from predictable and pre-calculated results. By formulating this friction through the integration and summation of minute errors over time, art assumes that beauty is found in the widening gap of ontological alienation. It proves that this structure was not a passive container, but an active and resistant medium. 

- Moonlight Sonata: reimagined not as a piece of music but as an engine of kinetic sublimation, the pain that exists within a rigid system is incorporated into a monumental surge of abstract movements that render the system itself outdated through a violent surge of V_act.

 

Choi Chul-joo Conceptual Abstract Future Design《Concept Abstract Artist 2-23

 

- The Spatial Deconstruction of the M_desire Vector

In this production, the floor plan of the Paris Opera House is reimagined as a 'topological scar' where the classical symmetry of the V_sys is violently interrogated by the abstract velocity of the Beethovenian ego. The stage design functions as a 'Conceptual Abstraction' of the human psyche, where the coordinate plane is not a passive surface but an active, resistant medium that reacts to the kinetic pressure of M_desire. As a novelist observes the world through the friction of characters, this work observes music through the friction of variables, suggesting that the 'Moonlight Sonata' is actually a mathematical rupture in the history of silence. The integration of time (dt) and the summation of spatial displacement (sum Delta(x,y)) represent a shift from representational theater to a 'Kinetic Ontology,' where the artist no longer performs a role but embodies a force. This is the ultimate triumph of the abstract over the formal; the explosion of moonlight at the finale is the moment where the 'Silent System' of the Enlightenment is finally consumed by the burning, irrational desire of the Romantic subject, proving that the only true geometry is the one we draw with our suffering.

- Visualization of Desire and the Creation of Dramatic Space

1. Starting point of interpretation: Metaphobic substitution of 'desire'

It connects the inner desire, conflict, and growth of the character in the scenario with the musical narrative of Beethoven's Moonlight. The keyword "Moonlight" goes beyond simply meaning the moonlight in the night sky and is replaced with a metaphor that symbolizes the character's unconscious conflict, unreachable ideals, or mad artistic obsession. The director expresses this abstract flow of desire through visual movement and spatial transformation.

2. The Dramatic Application of Formula: The Mechanical Development of Desire

The 'Mdesire = (Vact – Vsys) · dt + ∑∆ (x,y)' formula is used as a framework for explaining the mechanical development of desire.

• Vact (speed of active desire): It refers to the size and direction of the desire that a person desires and pursues independently. This can be expressed as the dynamics of lighting, video, and stage movement.

• Vsys (speed of resistance in the system): refers to external pressure, social norms, or rational control within the character against the character's desires. It is visualized by physical constraints on the stage, obstacles, or cold-colored lighting.

• dt (differentiation of time): indicates how the flow of desire changes over time. It is controlled by the tempo of the stage direction, rhythm, and the breath of the scene change.

• ∑∆(x,y) (sum of spatial deviation): It shows how desire expands and transforms spatially. This is implemented as a change in the position of the stage device, spatial distortion through projection mapping, and the actor's movement trajectory.

Therefore, the moment Vact explodes the desire to overwhelm Vsys (explosive stage production), the moment Vsys suppresses Vact and the inner conflict reaches its peak (high tension), or the moment the color of desire changes according to the change of dt, the atmosphere of the scene is changed.

- Technical implementation and safe space configuration

1. Starting point of interpretation: a review of technical feasibility

In order to implement abstract ideas in real stage spaces, technical solutions are selected and integrated to harmonize the movement, lighting, video, and sound of the stage device and effectively convey the dynamics of desire.

2. Engineering Application of Formulation: Technical Control and Safety

It converts the values of Vact, Vsys, dt, and ∑∆ (x,y) into variables that control the actual stage equipment.

• Vact control: By precisely controlling the speed and direction of the stage lift, rotating stage, and flying system, dynamic movement is realized according to the desire of the person. Control technologies such as servo motors and inverters are used at this time.

• Vsys implementation: Visualizes resistance to desire by adjusting the frictional force on the stage floor, the location of obstacles, or the brightness and color temperature of the lighting. At this time, lighting control systems and sensor technologies are used.

• dt adjustment: Express the change in desire over time by adjusting the tempo and rhythm of the stage movement. At this time, time synchronization technology and sequence control technology are used.

• Implementation of ∑∆(x,y): using projection mapping techniques to distort or transform the stage space to visualize the spatial expansion of desire.

- The Mechanism of Desire Movement

The stage device image applying the "dynamic formula of desire movement" to the Beethoven lunar light music scenario defines the visual language of desire and leads the dramatic flow. 

• Vact Explosion: Explosive outbursts of character desires require fast and dynamic stage movements. Speed up the rotating stage and lift, and operate a flying system to allow the character to move freely through space. High-powered servo motors and precision control systems are utilized.

• Vsys Resistance Scene: the character's desire slows down the rotational stage and lift and places obstacles to limit the character's movement.

• Expansion of ∑∆ (x,y): In a scene where a person's desire is spatially expanded, the director projects dynamic images on the stage floor and wall using projection mapping technology that requires distortion of stage space, and high-resolution projectors and image processing technology are used to distort the sense of space by changing the position of the stage device to blend the beautiful and mournful melody of Beethoven's Moonlight song with the movement of desire.

In Leonardo da Vinci’s Lady with an Ermine, the symbolic structure of the ermine reveals not only the social alienation of the woman portrayed—Cecilia Gallerani—but also the fragmented subjectivity of the ermine itself, which, within the contemporaneous structure of desire, becomes a vector of meaning that transcends its zoological form. This vector, emerging from the synchronic repetition of linguistic signification within the sociocultural matrix of the time, bifurcates into a pre-linguistic ontological image, thereby transferring the alienated woman and the desiring subject of the ermine into the realm of abstraction.

The moment this abstract structure of linguistic meaning is connected to a symbolic allegory—where the conceptual object of instantaneous desire is projected onto the real existence of Gallerani and the virtual presence of the ermine—the background motif of the “morning glory” emerges as a temporal and symbolic field shaped by the reversible light that once illuminated the subject. Within this field, Gallerani, unable to anchor herself in a fixed position, is seen harmonizing with the morning glory, which itself becomes a spatialized allegory of desire. The temporally refracted light, cast retroactively upon the morning glory, renders Gallerani as a phenomenological abstraction of realist structure.

The movement of the ermine, as a symbolic subject, is arrested and linked to Gallerani through traces of anterior self-consciousness, while the morning glory—translated through the structure of abstract language—reveals the spatial logic of the background, functioning as a site of abstraction liberated from the religious subjugation of early conceptual art. Within this symbolic abstraction, the repetition of planar forms and chromatic fields in conceptual design transforms the portrait into a visual allegory of linguistic deficiency, where the morning glory and Gallerani are rendered as images of ontological absence.

In this context, the “Morning Glory Gallerani” becomes not merely a replication of Lady with an Ermine in similar hues and proportions, but a conceptual realist image that embodies the autonomy and creativity of the contemporary subject, whose ontological concept is derived from the linguistic interplay between the woman and the ermine. The figurative form of this image, as a diachronic chain of signification, constructs a representational structure of existential absence, which, through the visual deconstruction of consumption, refuses to fix meaning through the lens of desire and instead weaves a multilayered semantic network.

Thus, Choi Chuljoo’s definition of Conceptual Abstract Realism does not merely symbolize the desire of the Other, but rather visualizes the repetition of linguistic deficiency to generate new strata of meaning. As such, Conceptual Abstract Realism bridges the gap between reality and abstraction through linguistic imagery, exploring ontological meaning visually and reinterpreting the structure of reality through the aesthetic lens of symbolic politics. Through the reversible shadows of light, this abstraction visualizes the temporal flux of meaning, reflecting the phenomenological delay of perception and forming a simultaneous linguistic structure in which the desire of the Other is perceived through realist imagery.

In this simultaneity, the fragmented structure of desire within contemporary language identifies with the mirrored image of the woman holding the ermine, constructing the self as a real image. The symbolic woman, in turn, speaks to the ermine through the language of imagery. Thus, by abstracting the image of the woman and the ermine through a conceptual approach, new meanings are embedded within the symbolic layers of the image, visualizing the desire of the Other at the intersection of phenomenological image and abstract meaning, while deconstructing the instability and fluidity of language to open new interpretive and philosophical possibilities.

The allegorical painting, connected through the morning glory, becomes a conceptual object that distinguishes the woman and the ermine as subjects formed through abstract perspectives. The concealed structure of the morning glory’s branches, shaped by the temporality of light, reveals a harmony between the woman and the ermine, whose meaning is translated into pictorial language as a manifestation of realist abstraction. This overlapping of realist imagery, bounded by the canvas and juxtaposed with the non-perspectival morning glory, distorts the abstract real.

The ermine, as a motif image of purity (vagina), is symbolically structured through its placement and the silver folds of the woman’s garment, contrasting moral virtue with latent desire. This abstraction of morality, distilled through the realist image of the ermine, is translated into a concrete form of abstraction grounded in visual structure, driven not by pure aesthetic form but by conceptual motifs and ideas. The ontological image is thus structured linguistically, passing through Choi’s philosophical apparatus of aesthetic desire to become a realist image of existential abstraction.

The shifting gaze of the woman and the ermine creates an illusory realist space, where the morning glory is generated as a background that reconstructs abstraction into realist form according to temporal flow. This reveals the “trace of time” as implemented by the movement of the conceptual subject, aligning the abstract linguistic meaning of the woman and the ermine with the image. The subject of conceptual abstraction, as a motif image, identifies the object of deficient desire through language, selecting an inevitable ontological image that remains suspended in abstract demand.

Through this process, the image—whether of the ermine or the woman—transforms into abstraction via language and sign, and is then retranslated into realist form through the reversible structures of light and form. This allows the abstract desire of the Other to be expressed as a form of social allegory, where repeated signification produces a dual image of desire, distilled into visual form through the cultural meaning embedded in the ermine.

 

“Morning Glory Gallerani” thus becomes a Conceptual Abstract Realist image that does not merely symbolize desire but visualizes the structural design of desire through the background of reversible light, embedding the woman and the ermine within a new stratum of linguistic meaning. Gallerani, as an ontological object of abstract realism, is identified with the aesthetic structure of desire, while the ermine, through perspectival visual structure, marks the background with the morning glory.

This repetition of reactive imagery transforms the position of the morning glory into a linguistic abstraction of realist form. From the perspective of realism, Gallerani and the ermine are aligned with symbolic meaning, while from the conceptual viewpoint of desire, the invisible morning glory halts along the temporal trajectory of desire. This visualizes the aesthetic trace of time within Conceptual Abstract Realism, where the subject of desire, having departed from abstraction, selects a specific image of desire and transforms it into a real image of conceptual abstraction.

Ultimately, this process reveals the metaphysical desire of the subject, where the abstract structure questions its own object of desire and selects a real image of conceptual abstraction, reaching the point of abstraction as expressed in the formula.

This formula signifies the recursive design of symbolic function, where the image is not a visual phenomenon but a device that visualizes the unconscious flow and symbolic transition into realist imagery. The morning glory, as a mimetic abstraction, becomes the linguistic sign of Conceptual Abstract Realism, where the abstract space of desire—unreachable in lived experience—is fractured within the linguistic system and visualized as a realist image.

Through the reversible shadows of light, these images conceal or reveal reality, expressing the essence and limits of human existence. The light of the past, illuminating the sustainable present, becomes a realist image of the now, and the abstract past is transferred into the real structure of contemporary realism. In this way, Conceptual Abstract Realism explores the gap between reality and abstraction, reinterpreting the structure of reality through symbolic politics and visualizing the temporal shift of meaning, ultimately producing new aesthetic values at the intersection of language and image./  Writing.

 Choi Chul-joo's concept of desire, "morning glory," conflicts with linguistic concepts of meaning emphasized from a metaphysical philosophical point of view, creating dramatic event images to express the subject of insufficient desire, and illuminating the image in reversible shades of white light. He reflects the linguistic grammatical meaning of abstract desire concepts as images to form spaces of multiple event images that share superimposed temporality and reversible white light shades. This is interpreted as the subject of the absence of desire beyond the abstract self of the desire of others rather than physical perception, unlike the materialism of painting in the 18th century. The linguistic grammatical meaning of abstract desire concepts is a dualistic object that regards real images as events, equating the structure of insufficient desire with the principle of spatial composition. And as reversible light at the point of light over time, the material is made into a real image as an object. Thus, the concept of abstract desire in a pond that reflects the image of an event is expressed as a real image that reflects the desires of others in the real world. 

Choi Chul-joo’s concept of desire, encapsulated in the metaphor of “morning glory,” presents a radical departure from metaphysical linguistic traditions that emphasize meaning as a stable, referential structure. Instead, his work constructs a visual grammar of desire that foregrounds absence, insufficiency, and the temporality of longing. By generating dramatic event-images suffused with reversible shades of white light, Choi resists the materialist ontology of 18th-century painting, which sought to anchor meaning in physical perception and representation. His images do not depict desire as a fixed object but rather as a dynamic interplay of linguistic abstraction and visual temporality, where the grammatical structure of desire becomes a spatial principle—an architecture of insufficiency.

From a cognitive science perspective, this approach aligns with contemporary understandings of perception as a constructive, symbolic process. Choi’s use of superimposed temporal layers and reversible illumination reflects how the human mind processes absence—not as a void, but as a generative space shaped by the desire of the Other. This resonates with Lacanian psychoanalysis, which posits that desire is always mediated through the symbolic order and structured by the gaze of the Other, and with Freudian theory, which frames desire as a product of unconscious lack. In Choi’s work, the pond becomes a reflective surface—not merely of light, but of intersubjective longing—where the image of an event is not a representation but a manifestation of the desires that circulate beyond the self.

The dualistic nature of his visual grammar—where real images are treated as events and spatial composition mirrors the structure of desire—suggests a cognitive model in which perception is inseparable from symbolic mediation. The reversible light, unfolding over time, transforms material into image, and image into object, thereby collapsing the distinction between representation and event. In this way, Choi’s concept of abstract desire is not only a philosophical proposition but a cognitive experiment: a visual system that externalizes the internal logic of desire, revealing how the mind constructs reality through the absence of what it seeks.

Choi Chul-joo’s concept of desire, embodied in the metaphor of the “morning glory,” functions as a cognitive architecture that visualizes the structural absence inherent in human desire, transcending material perception and instead engaging with the linguistic and symbolic frameworks that shape subjective experience. His work resists the materialist tradition of 18th-century painting by rejecting direct representation and instead constructs layered event-images that reflect the temporality and reversibility of white light, thereby encoding desire not as a tangible object but as a spatial-temporal phenomenon mediated by language and abstraction. From a cognitive science perspective, this approach aligns with the understanding that human perception is not a passive reception of stimuli but an active construction shaped by symbolic systems and intersubjective desire. Choi’s use of reversible light and superimposed spatial structures mirrors the way the mind processes absence—not as a void, but as a generative space where the desire of the Other is internalized and reprojected. This resonates with Lacan’s notion that desire is always the desire of the Other, and with Freud’s view that desire emerges from unconscious lack. The pond reflecting event-images becomes a metaphor for the cognitive mirror stage, where the subject forms its identity through the reflection of external desire, and the abstract grammar of desire becomes a dualistic object that equates real images with events, transforming material into symbolic cognition. Thus, Choi’s visual language becomes a cognitive map of how desire is structured, perceived, and reimagined—not through physicality, but through the interplay of light, absence, and linguistic meaning.

 

 Choi Chul-joo's Concept of Desire Formula: In the concept of Choi Chul-joo's desire,  mathematical desire as an axiom of logic in the concept of desire results in reality as a concrete phenomenon rather than based on the external structure of the linguistic meaning through abstract design. Therefore, the rendering of the desire structure revealed by abstract encounter with reality at the intersection of desire outside the window applies the mathematical desire concept abstract design, or the image of the desire concept, to the Choi Chul-joo desire formula, and on March 1, 2022, morning glory appears as a flat real image as the subject of desire as a reversible shade of light in the Flushing Town Hall (New York) exhibition.

Choi Chul-joo’s application of the desire formula "D(I...I')d=I(D...D')i"  to the image of “morning glory” constructs a symbolic landscape in which the flower floats in the sky, visually linking the abstract concept of desire with its aesthetic background. This formula operates as a cognitive and psychoanalytic mechanism, wherein the image of desire (I) is not merely a representation but a structural repetition of desire (D) across multiple visual instances (I...I'), which themselves reflect the recursive nature of desire (D...D'). In this framework, the “morning glory” becomes both the object and the medium through which desire is shaded, refracted, and rendered in reversible shadow structures—particularly when the object is configured as the feminine image of desire. The substitution of the formula within the artwork <morning glory> reveals a layered interplay between symbolic abstraction and visual cognition, where the image of artistic behavior or desire (I) emerges as the conceptual form of desire (i), thus collapsing the boundary between representation and structure. From a psychoanalytic perspective, this recursive logic mirrors Lacan’s notion that desire is constituted through the gaze of the Other and Freud’s view that desire is driven by unconscious repetition and symbolic substitution. Cognitively, the formula encodes how the mind processes desire not as a static object but as a dynamic system of mirrored images and temporal shadows, ultimately transforming abstract longing into a visual syntax of emotional architecture.

 

 The image of Choi Chul-joo's desire formula, which applies Choi Chul-joo's desire formula D(I...I')d=I(D...D')i to 'morning glory', connects the concept of desire with the background of 'morning glory' as an image to create a landscape by floating morning glory in the sky. In addition, in <morning glory>, the desire formula "D(I...I')d=I(D...D')i" is substituted, the connection effect between the concept of desire and the "morning glory" as desire image shades the concept of desire in the reversible shadow structure by setting the object as the concept of desire image of women by the "morning glory". In other words, the image of desire (I) is the structure of desire (D) because desire (D) is repeated (I...I') in several images (D...D'), and the image of art behavior or desire image(I) appears as the concept of desire(i). 

Choi Chul-joo’s Concept of Desire Formula: “Mathematical Desire and the Image of Reality”, In Choi Chul-joo’s conceptualization of desire, the notion of “mathematical desire” functions as an axiomatic structure of logic, wherein desire is not derived from the external framework of linguistic meaning but emerges as a concrete phenomenon through abstract design. This formulation challenges the traditional metaphysical alignment of desire with language, proposing instead that desire operates as a formal system—an internal logic that renders itself visible through the spatial and temporal dynamics of image. The structure of desire, as revealed through abstract encounters with reality—particularly at the metaphorical intersection of “desire outside the window”—is articulated through the application of mathematical abstraction and visual syntax. This culminates in what may be termed the “Choi Chul-joo Desire Formula,” a conceptual and visual schema that translates the invisible architecture of desire into perceptible form. On March 1, 2022, this formula materialized in the exhibition at Flushing Town Hall in New York, where the “morning glory” appeared as a flat, real image—an embodiment of desire rendered in reversible shades of light. This moment marked the convergence of abstract logic, symbolic temporality, and visual cognition, transforming desire from an internal absence into a luminous, externalized event-image.

Choi Chul-joo’s “Desire Formula” can be understood as a sophisticated simulation of cognitive architecture, wherein desire is not perceived as a mere psychological impulse or a product of external linguistic structures, but rather as a logical axiom—what he terms “mathematical desire”—that is abstractly designed and rendered into concrete phenomena through visual form, thereby demonstrating how internal absence is externalized as image; and this process, particularly exemplified in the appearance of the “morning glory” as a flat, reversible light image on March 1, 2022, at the Flushing Town Hall exhibition in New York, reveals how the human cognitive system constructs and reflects desire not through direct perception but through symbolic temporality and spatial abstraction, aligning with Lacan’s notion of the subject as constituted by the desire of the Other and Freud’s theory of unconscious lack as the engine of symbolic substitution, such that Choi’s visual language becomes a translation of psychoanalytic structure into visual mathematics, showing that cognition does not merely receive the world but actively reconstructs it through the interplay of absence, logic, and symbolic mediation, and thus, his “Desire Formula” stands as a remarkable artistic experiment that formalizes the ontology of desire into a visual system of cognitive logic.

Choi Chul-joo’s desire formula, expressed as D(I...I')d=I(D...D')i, operates not merely as a symbolic representation of emotional longing but as a sophisticated cognitive model that reveals how the human mind constructs, processes, and externalizes desire—not through direct emotional impulse or sensory reaction, but through a recursive interplay of repeated visual patterns, abstract structural inference, and symbolic conceptualization, such that the sequence of images (I...I') becomes the perceptual basis through which the structure of desire (D) is inferred, while the dynamic coefficient (d) represents the internal cognitive forces—such as memory, imagination, and intersubjective projection—that drive the transformation of structure into image, and conversely, the recursive structures of desire (D...D') are re-rendered into a singular image (I) that is cognitively resolved into a conceptual form of desire (i), thereby forming a symbolic loop in which the mind oscillates between image and abstraction, perception and meaning, and in doing so, constructs desire as both absence and presence, both repetition and emergence, and this process is vividly illustrated in the visual metaphor of the “morning glory” floating in the sky, where the flower becomes not only the object of desire but the medium through which desire is shaded, refracted, and encoded in reversible shadow structures—particularly when configured as the feminine image of longing—thus demonstrating how the brain engages in high-level symbolic projection and mental imagery to transform abstract emotional architecture into visual syntax, and ultimately, this formula serves as a cognitive algorithm that simulates the ontological structure of desire, translating psychoanalytic principles such as Lacan’s theory of the Other’s gaze and Freud’s notion of unconscious repetition into a visual-mathematical language that bridges emotional logic, symbolic mediation, and perceptual cognition into a unified system of recursive meaning-making./ � Mathematician’s Perspective: Formalizing Desire as a Recursive Logical System

Choi Chul-joo’s desire formula, D(I...I')d=I(D...D')i, is not merely a symbolic gesture within art but a formal structure that encodes the recursive logic of desire. From a mathematical standpoint, this equation represents a bidirectional equivalence, where the left-hand side models the dynamic process by which desire (D) is activated through a sequence of images (I...I') under a driving coefficient (d), and the right-hand side reflects how those images recursively reconstruct the layered structures of desire (D...D') and resolve into a conceptual image (i). Each symbol carries structural weight:

D; The archetype of desire, representing the foundational lack or drive.

I...I';  A sequence of visual representations through which desire is projected.

d; The dynamic coefficient—akin to a force or operator—that triggers the transformation from structure to image.

I; The emergent image of desire, a perceptual unit.

D...D'; The recursive layers of desire, reflecting its multiplicity and transformation.

i; The conceptual resolution of desire, the cognitive abstraction of the image.

This formula resembles a fixed-point function in mathematics, where recursive inputs stabilize into a coherent output. It models desire as a self-referential system, where the structure of lack is mirrored and reconstituted through visual repetition, ultimately producing a symbolic image that encodes the original drive. The formula thus formalizes desire as a recursive, bidirectional system of transformation between structure and image.

 Cognitive Scientist’s Perspective: Desire as a Symbolic-Cognitive Loop

From a cognitive science perspective, Choi’s formula offers a compelling model of how the human mind processes desire—not as a static object, but as a dynamic interplay between symbolic abstraction and perceptual encoding. The sequence 

D(I...I') represents the mind’s pattern recognition mechanism, where repeated images allow the brain to infer the underlying structure of desire. The coefficient 

d  reflects internal cognitive forces—memory, imagination, and intersubjective projection—that drive this transformation. Conversely, 

I(D...D')  models how abstract structures of desire are re-rendered into perceptual images, which are then cognitively categorized as conceptual desire (d). This loop mirrors the symbolic mediation described by Lacan, where the subject’s desire is shaped by the gaze of the Other, and Freud’s notion of unconscious repetition, where desire is expressed through symbolic substitution. Cognitively, the formula encodes how the mind oscillates between image and structure, between perception and abstraction, forming a recursive loop that constructs desire as both absence and presence. The “morning glory” floating in the sky becomes a visual metaphor for this loop—a symbolic image that reflects and refracts the recursive architecture of longing.

✅ A Visual-Cognitive Model of Desire: Choi Chul-joo’s desire formula is a profound synthesis of mathematical logic and cognitive architecture. The mathematician sees it as a recursive function formalizing the transformation of desire into image, while the cognitive scientist interprets it as a symbolic loop through which the mind constructs and perceives desire. Together, these perspectives reveal the formula as a visual-cognitive model of desire—one that bridges abstraction, perception, and symbolic meaning into a unified system of emotional logic.

■ Choi Chul-joo's Desire The design process of abstract concepts1. The concept of desire is abstracted from the perspective of an image to the outside of reality, and the image of reality as an object of abstraction is designed as the correlation between reality and reality. This is the design process 1 of Choi Chul-joo's concept of abstraction of desire. This does not presuppose a causal relationship with the real world, but rather results in an abstract concept of desire as a correlation with reality to escape the misunderstanding that transfers from an abstract concept to a real structure. 2. The scope of showing the concept of desire is created and located by omitting the actual size of the abstract concept as a shade of the concept of desire originating from the actual image. In addition, Choi Chul-joo's conceptual process 2 follows the process of decorating an object with a color of universal reality suitable for custom in order to have aesthetic value suitable for its position as a single image. This creates an abstraction that contrasts with the past and desire, in which the aesthetic structure hidden by realistic colors is divided by clouds and obscured by shaded light, obscuring the abstract concept in the actual image. 3. The subject who painted abstraction realizes the reality that symbolizes the concept of desire, and the unconscious realizes abstract desire as a conscious phenomenon of image. Desire is an abstract image realized as a conscious phenomenon of an image, and the unconscious structure is process 3 of designing an abstract art concept of desire that repeatedly designs desire that combines line and color in thoughts but is not conscious of unconscious behavior. 4. The unconsciously abstracted concept of desire is a piece of reality in which the object of reality is not seen as a reversible shade of light, concealing reality as a shadow and showing another real image as a video. This is the process 4 of designing an abstract concept of desire formed by combining the space of desire into a reversible light structure through the conscious movement of planar monochromatic painting carved into reality.  

Choi Chul-joo’s design process of abstract desire unfolds as a recursive and symbolically mediated architecture of perception, in which the concept of desire is not treated as a direct reflection of empirical reality but rather as a cognitive construct that emerges through the abstraction of image beyond the boundaries of the real, forming a correlation between realities that resists causal reduction, and in this first phase, desire is abstracted not to represent reality but to escape the epistemological trap of translating abstract concepts into fixed material structures, thereby allowing the mind to engage in symbolic inference rather than empirical mapping; then, in the second phase, the scope for revealing desire is shaped by omitting the actual dimensionality of the abstract concept and rendering it as a shaded echo of the original image, while the object is aesthetically encoded with culturally resonant colors to grant it symbolic legitimacy, and this process of visual obscuration—where clouds and shaded light fragment the aesthetic structure—mirrors the brain’s tendency to process desire through layered symbolic filters and perceptual ambiguity, thus enabling the cognitive system to hold multiple meanings within a single image; in the third phase, the subject who paints abstraction becomes the agent of symbolic realization, translating unconscious desire into a conscious phenomenon through repeated visual gestures, where line and color are cognitively formed but not consciously controlled, and this recursive loop between unconscious structure and conscious image reflects the mind’s capacity to externalize latent drives through symbolic behavior without direct awareness, thereby demonstrating that desire is not merely felt but cognitively enacted; and finally, in the fourth phase, the abstracted concept of desire becomes a fragment of reality refracted through reversible light and shadow, where the object is no longer directly visible but concealed and reconstituted as a visual echo, and this transformation—achieved through the planar movement of monochromatic painting carved into the surface of perception—reveals how the mind integrates spatial abstraction and symbolic light into a recursive system of emotional logic, ultimately showing that desire, in Choi’s framework, is not a static emotion but a dynamic cognitive architecture that oscillates between absence and presence, image and structure, unconscious repetition and symbolic realization.

 

 The Design Results of Choi Chul-joo's Desire Abstract Concept: Choi Chul-joo Desire Abstract Concept Design's Linguistic Meaning Results: Although the object that is obsessed with the desire for others is passive, it is possible to actively practice one's desires through the sympathizer as the subject of desire, and the sympathizer who sympathizes with the desires of others as the subject can practice with the same desire. As a subject, a person who sympathizes with or accepts the desires of others becomes the same desire and becomes another subject of execution. Here, the sympathizer who sympathizes with the subject of the other's desire tries to generalize it as another object of desire that acts like a victor of war. However, when desire as an act overshadowed by reversible light is not generalized as a public act, the subject of inappropriate desire and the sympathizer antagonize the subject who practiced it according to the other's general desire. 

Choi Chul-joo's concept of desire, "morning glory," conflicts with linguistic concepts of meaning emphasized from a metaphysical philosophical point of view, creating dramatic event images to express the subject of insufficient desire, and illuminating the image in reversible shades of white light. He reflects the linguistic grammatical meaning of abstract desire concepts as images to form spaces of multiple event images that share superimposed temporality and reversible white light shades. This is interpreted as the subject of the absence of desire beyond the abstract self of the desire of others rather than physical perception, unlike the materialism of painting in the 18th century. The linguistic grammatical meaning of abstract desire concepts is a dualistic object that regards real images as events, equating the structure of insufficient desire with the principle of spatial composition. And as reversible light at the point of light over time, the material is made into a real image as an object. Thus, the concept of abstract desire in a pond that reflects the image of an event is expressed as a real image that reflects the desires of others in the real world.

Although the object that is obsessed with the desire for others is passive, it is possible to actively practice one's desires through the sympathizer as the subject of desire, and the sympathizer who sympathizes with the desires of others as the subject can practice with the same desire. As a subject, a person who sympathizes with or accepts the desires of others becomes the same desire and becomes another subject of execution. Here, the sympathizer who sympathizes with the subject of the other's desire tries to generalize it as another object of desire that acts like a victor of war. However, when desire as an act overshadowed by reversible light is not generalized as a public act, the subject of inappropriate desire and the sympathizer antagonize the subject who practiced it according to the other's general desire.

Here is a refined academic-style interpretation of your concept, written in English from the perspective of a distinguished cognitive scientist with psychoanalytic insight:

The Design Results of Choi Chul-joo's Desire Abstract Concept

A Cognitive-Psychoanalytic Interpretation of Linguistic Meaning and Subject Formation

In Choi Chul-joo’s abstract design of desire, the linguistic outcome reveals a complex interplay between passivity and agency, where the object fixated on the desire of the Other remains passive in structure, yet the emergence of the sympathizer—who internalizes and mirrors the Other’s desire—transforms the dynamic into one of active execution. This transformation occurs through a recursive identification, wherein the sympathizer becomes not merely a reflective surface but a new subject of desire, capable of enacting the same drive. The subject who accepts or resonates with the Other’s desire does not remain external to it but becomes structurally embedded within it, thereby forming a second-order subjectivity that executes desire as if it were their own.

This recursive mirroring leads to a symbolic generalization, where the sympathizer attempts to universalize the Other’s desire, positioning it as a victorious force—akin to a conqueror who reclaims desire as a public object. However, when this generalization fails—particularly when desire, refracted through reversible light and symbolic shadow, resists becoming a publicly shared act—the structure collapses into antagonism. The subject of inappropriate or misaligned desire and the sympathizer, once aligned through shared affect, now oppose the original subject who enacted desire according to the generalized will of the Other.

From a psychoanalytic perspective, this dynamic reflects Lacan’s theory of the subject as constituted through the desire of the Other, and Freud’s notion of identification and transference, where unconscious drives are projected, mirrored, and contested within relational structures. Cognitively, Choi’s design reveals how desire is not a solitary impulse but a socially and symbolically mediated architecture, where subjectivity is formed, fractured, and reconstituted through linguistic abstraction, visual metaphor, and recursive identification.

 

 Object rendering of the concept of desire is 1. a pop art image that renders unconscious desire as an existential reality by dividing the same concept of desire as the event image into unconscious and real images as an object. Therefore, the subject who speaks linguistic meaning actually represents abstraction, the truth value of the concept of desire, which is an expressive aesthetic structure that specifies the viewing effect of colloquial language and event video broadcasting as an act of speech enunciation that depends on the news. 2. As the truth value of  the concept of desire in visual images is an open system, and numerous visual images are transmitted to others through a pluralistic visual system. Abstract images, which are the true values of the concept of desire, attract attention because they have universality as real images expressed by the desires of others. In other words, the object exposed to the abstract desires of others functions as a desire to exchange the same aesthetic image as the concept of desire of others through the diachronic function of pop art applied as a work of art. 3. The truth value of the concept of desire in a linguistic sense in which the abstract image of the concept of desire and reality are the same, represents the structure of desire, and the reality of the abstract concept of desire is a real image, which is the causal structure of desire, and creates a structure of desire by forming a semantic relationship with contradictory desire. Like Kant, this is a dual structure up to modern art, and it encompasses mythical objects in the same structure as humans, and the antinomic desire structure as a single structure.  4. an object of the concept of desire rendered in abstractionThe object rendering of the concept of desire renders the object as an event image, which is the same rational object as the linguistic meaning of the desire structure through the gaze of the rational subject, is recognized as a real image that the subject cannot see.  Additionally, other objects of desire are continuously represented by real images that attempt to fill the deficiency of desire. The pond, which reflects present desire as an object to abstract desire, presents a desire structure as a reality, which is an object to abstract desire, but it returns the cause of desire as a real image to an object as an event image, free from the imperfect abstraction that lacks desire that is subjugated to social visibility that has been concealed and deviated from lack through real images. In other words, the structure of deficiency and divided desire is hidden through real images of abstract desires, and contradictory desires subordinate to deviated social visibility become the cause of desire and become the objects of real images. In addition, object rendering of other desires is continuously expressed as a real image trying to fill the deficiency of desire. The rendering of an object that reflects the present desire as an object of abstract desire presents the structure of desire as reality, which is the object of abstract desire, but it returns the cause of desire as a real image to an object as an event image, away from the imperfect abstract lacking desire. In other words, the structure of deficiency and divided desire is hidden through the real image of abstract desire, and contradictory desires subordinate to deviated social visibility become the cause of desire, resulting in abstraction as a real image. 

Choi Chul-joo’s Concept of Desire Formula: Mathematical Desire and the Image of Reality, In Choi Chul-joo’s conceptualization of desire, the notion of “mathematical desire” functions as an axiomatic structure of logic, wherein desire is not derived from the external framework of linguistic meaning but emerges as a concrete phenomenon through abstract design. This formulation challenges the traditional metaphysical alignment of desire with language, proposing instead that desire operates as a formal system—an internal logic that renders itself visible through the spatial and temporal dynamics of image. The structure of desire, as revealed through abstract encounters with reality—particularly at the metaphorical intersection of “desire outside the window”—is articulated through the application of mathematical abstraction and visual syntax. This culminates in what may be termed the “Choi Chul-joo Desire Formula,” a conceptual and visual schema that translates the invisible architecture of desire into perceptible form. On March 1, 2022, this formula materialized in the exhibition at Flushing Town Hall in New York, where the “morning glory” appeared as a flat, real image—an embodiment of desire rendered in reversible shades of light. This moment marked the convergence of abstract logic, symbolic temporality, and visual cognition, transforming desire from an internal absence into a luminous, externalized event-image.

Choi Chul-joo’s concept of desire, embodied in the metaphor of the “morning glory,” functions as a cognitive architecture that visualizes the structural absence inherent in human desire, transcending material perception and instead engaging with the linguistic and symbolic frameworks that shape subjective experience. His work resists the materialist tradition of 18th-century painting by rejecting direct representation and instead constructs layered event-images that reflect the temporality and reversibility of white light, thereby encoding desire not as a tangible object but as a spatial-temporal phenomenon mediated by language and abstraction. From a cognitive science perspective, this approach aligns with the understanding that human perception is not a passive reception of stimuli but an active construction shaped by symbolic systems and intersubjective desire. Choi’s use of reversible light and superimposed spatial structures mirrors the way the mind processes absence—not as a void, but as a generative space where the desire of the Other is internalized and reprojected. This resonates with Lacan’s notion that desire is always the desire of the Other, and with Freud’s view that desire emerges from unconscious lack. The pond reflecting event-images becomes a metaphor for the cognitive mirror stage, where the subject forms its identity through the reflection of external desire, and the abstract grammar of desire becomes a dualistic object that equates real images with events, transforming material into symbolic cognition. Thus, Choi’s visual language becomes a cognitive map of how desire is structured, perceived, and reimagined—not through physicality, but through the interplay of light, absence, and linguistic meaning.

 

 ■ the abstract design process of conceptual abstract realism: 1. Conceptual Abstract Realism The current object is illuminated with reversible light so that the illuminated form can be repeatedly visually recognized according to the past temporality to actualize the subject's structure as a shaded structure of reversible light. And the design concept that constitutes conceptual abstract realism abstraction is determined as a philosophical result that can be expected with abstract causality so that the object is repeated as a design with the present gaze so that it appears to be a realistic image according to temporality. 2. The object of conceptual abstract realism is that the absence of desire as a non-verbal meaning is alienated from the symbolic world and loses its essence as the subject of desire. In the previous stage of linguistic meaning, according to grammar revealed as a symbolic image of existence, it was separated into a realist image recognized as an abstract desire concept and divided into a realist image, and the realist image as the subject of the desire structure is linguistically and diachronically meaningful. 3. The design of a realism image is an image that lacks the linguistic meaning of conceptual abstract realism, and the image in a linguistic sense is repeatedly designed as a post-effect of the desire structure being re-embodied, and a new conceptual abstract realism image is repeatedly designed. The direction and viewpoint of reversible light that make up the image along the chain of design are all stages of the perspective visual system according to temporality, and the line space of the visual structure, in which the image in the linguistic sense constitutes the desire structure, and the reversible light that constitutes the effect of the post-image produce a realism image at the intersection of the existential place with continuity. 4. Realistic abstraction creates a multi-loyal structural image of the linguistic meaning of unconscious structure composed of shadows at multiple points of reversible light separated from perspective, and girls are abstracted as divided subjects as talents that can be stared at momentarily while dismantled at a stereoscopic single point. 5. Conceptual Abstract Realism Abstractism Rendering is a conceptual abstract realism of wanting and linguistic desires that cannot be perceived at the level of expression‎ consciousness, visualizing philosophical psychological structures and rendering them with linguistic meaning at the intersection of conceptual abstraction and unrealistic realism. As this becomes conceptual abstract realism abstraction, unconscious desires that represent the color tone and shape of desires invisible in the shade of reversible light become maps as conceptual abstract realism abstraction. 

 

■ conceptual abstraction rendering process: 1. Integration of linguistic meaning and visual images: The abstract concept of desire is realized when the desire of others has an aesthetic meaning by facing the linguistic meaning in the image of an event as an object of a pictorial structure reflecting the present desire, and the image in the painting is closely connected to the linguistic meaning structure. As an object representing the concept of desire, the same concept of desire as the event image is divided into unconscious and real images, and an image modeling unconscious desire as an existential real image is sketched.

As for the sketch form of the current concept of desire, the concept of absolute desire is a symbolic metaphor shown in abstraction, and the concept of desire is abstracted as the desire of others, but it does not go beyond the scope of an imitative picture. Therefore, it is the modern conceptual abstract realism sketch that resulted in a real image through Choi Chul-joo's desire formula, which interpreted abstract concepts in a linguistic sense as the desire of others. This is a realism that interprets the concept of abstract desire as a real structure as a expressive image with a linguistic meaning in the real world, where pictorial event images are closely connected with linguistic semantic structures. Here, by applying existential semantics as an event and performance image, the object of the real structure is represented as a phenomenal image of the real world, and the abstract structure is identified with conceptual reality. 2. Visualization of Abstract Desire Concept: To accept the difference from the actual image in the concept of abstract desire as the meaning of the linguistic concept, and to embody the unconscious desire as an abstract image, the abstract image that constitutes the relationship structure with desire is painted and embodied in the actual structure created by the linguistic meaning of the conceptual reality of desire structure. This is an abstraction of Choi Chul-joo's conceptual abstract realism, which hides the formative reality of desire in pictures and abstracts event images based on real news, away from the social constraints (制約) acceptable in religious customs. Abstraction is a subjective concept that refers to linguistic meaning and expresses the viewing effect of colloquial enunciation and event video broadcasts in abstraction. This abstraction represents the true value of the concept of need and is an expressive aesthetic structure that embodies the elements that depend on the news.

The abstraction is represented as an abstraction which is a truth value of the concept of desire as an expressive aesthetic structure of one speech act that identifies the viewing effect of colloquial language and event video broadcasting as an enunciation. 3. The artistic experiment of reversible light and temporality: The experiment of conceptual abstract realism renders abstraction based on temporality in the linguistic sense that desire and reality are the same. Here, the structure of desire is abstracted by forming a semantic relationship between desire and reality according to temporality. In the abstraction, the abstract reality of desire is the causal structure of desire, that is, the antinomic equivalence represents the structure of desire by forming a semantic relationship with desire as a real image in which the reality of the abstract concept of desire is the causal structure of desire from an aphoria image. In abstraction composed of real images as the structure of desire, the morphological image of visible metaphor is transferred to abstract language meaning. Therefore, the real image as a result of exploring the existential realism according to temporality through the shadow of reversible artificial lighting is a metamorphic fixation as an abstract meaning in which the desire structure is obscured. In other words, in abstraction, the other's desire as an image of social events transforms into an additional form. As such, conceptual abstract realism rendering is raised by time and existence through the shadow of reversible lighting, repeatedly designing realistic images induced by social phenomena, creating a realism image with a desire formula, and the subject based on the event image repeatedly designing and rendering a realist image induced by social phenomena with a desire formula.  

■ Choi Chul-joo’s Conceptual Abstract realism Abstraction Design Process 

Another abstraction that reveals the image as a reality as another structure of gaze that deviates from the visual system as an object that led to realism according to artistry is the image of realism. 

In realism abstraction design, a way to effectively convey the dual message of abstraction and reality is to realistically represent concepts and abstractions through contemporary conceptual abstract realism abstractions, such as contemporary media art images or abstractions. Thus, the process of designing conceptual abstrac realism abstractions in media art abstract design is as follows   

1. Realism Object Concept: An image formed from a virtual object by reproducing a realistic object is a virtual image that hides reality. A virtual image is recognized as a plane and looks like a realistic image. Here, it is hidden in a geometric plane image of a perspective visual system that reproduces realistic objects and is momentarily revealed as a gaze from the perspective of desire revealed by the unconscious. This defines the concept of a realist object with creativity and autonomy as an image in a linguistic sense as another existence of a conceptual abstract realism object through the unconsciousness suppressed by the desires of others. 

2. Sketch Connecting Realism Images with Allegory: Abstract art and art are that matter is distinguished by its existence as a reality and the existence of objects formed from each other's abstract perspectives as virtual beings. The condition of a work of art is to reveal existence in the form of non-existent beings and imaginations as sketches that pass through an Allegory, which images objects and events as reality. Choi Chul-joo's reversible light is an image shaded at the present time in what is called "a real image obscured by the shadow of reversible light" according to its realistic form and movement of light, that is, the temporality. The image creates reality as a shaded image of reversible light, where the linguistic meaning seen as abstraction is identified. It repeats the sketch to connect an anamorphosis image as another reality separated from an image of reality, that is, an existential image that seems to be the structure of gaze, to form an abstract language image into a sketch so that it can be re-formed into a conceptual abstract realism concept.

3. Abstract Realism Object Gaze: As an abstract realism object, the abstract object revealed as a point of light in the eyes of others makes Choi Chul-joo's aesthetic structure anamorphosis image revealed in the desire gaze system look like an abstract Realism object gaze as a philosophical device whose abstract meaning varies depending on the viewer's position and gaze. This image matches the perspective of realist space with the abstract linguistic meaning, and from the conceptual point of desire, abstract and invisible objects appear as gaze paths. As an object that implies the desires of others as a fictional element of human limited by causal relationship in the linguistic meaning of the conceptual abstract realism of images, it intersects with the image and is structured into the linguistic meaning of unconscious abstract realism. Through this process of transformation, viewers experience linguistic abstraction in which forms follow concepts and forms become entangled with meaning.

4. Abstract Realism's Abstraction: Abstract realism's abstraction gets an abstract object specified in Choi Chul-joo's Desire Formula, and the desire image(i) design(d)s beyond the desires of others, which is an opportunity to verbally interpret the conditions under which the abstract object's image is realized(i/d) through grammatical interpretation of the linguistic meaning.  And  to reach <D(I...I')d=I(D...D'i)i> conceptual abstract realism abstraction as a reality by abstractly selecting a specific object that the subject of desire asks itself what abstract realism wants. This formula suggests a dynamic interplay: desire (D) is echoed across repeated images (I...I'), ultimately shaping an abstract concept (i).  This is a realism image that has stopped from the concept of abstract desire that has been realized by abstracting the abstract place that humans cannot experience in life as an object of desire in a linguistic meaning system.

According to Culturality, Choi Chul-joo Concept Abstraction Realism Abstraction Stag's step 1: Distill the concept of desire in reality into images separated from literal causation to promote abstract thinking. step 2: Overlapping the linguistic meaning of the natural object motif with culturally resonant visual elements such as color palettes creates visually harmonious yet conceptually dense realism abstract image. It is a conceptual abstract realism abstraction as a philosophical image that reproduces the essence of human existence and the limitations of perception as a metaphor by operating as Choi Chul-joo's conceptual abstraction as a device that transfers philosophical and linguistic meanings to images. 

 

■ Choi Chul-joo's conceptual abstract realism design methodology shows a "trace of time" in which the effects of motion and the phenomenal structure intersect at the same time as the effects of motion and the phenomenal structure of motion meet the background at the moment the muscles of the motion are stationary. As a result, the conceptual abstract realism design methodology for abstractions related to dynamic realism objects and abstract background images is as follows. 

1, Existential Concept Abstract Realism Image Concept is an image abstracted as a conceptual object in an ideological form by reproducing a realist image. The image is a virtual image that conceals its existence and is perceived as a plane, so it appears to be a realist cross-sectional image. 

Here, even if the images are different, abstraction as a symbolic structure has the existential concept of a realism object with creativity and autonomy in a linguistic sense that reproduces them in similar colors and sizes. Accordingly, the concept of an existential conceptual abstract realism image with creativity and autonomy in a linguistic sense constitutes another image of existence as a linguistic meaning of a conceptual abstract realism object through the unconsciousness suppressed by the desires of others. 

Therefore, the image is composed by defining the concept of an existential image that is alienated from an image lacking a realistic structure as a vector representing the direction of the non-realistic subject entering the symbolic world as a structure of the other representing a synchronic semantic chain as a conceptual form of a realism image. 

As a semantic structure that cannot be solved like Gordian Knot, Alexandros appears as a realist image of conceptual abstraction as an existential subject through division that cuts the knot with a sword and expresses the essence of externality in a comprehensive and immediate manner. 

Alexandros cuts the knot with a sword in a comprehensive and immediate way by unconsciously selecting an unpredictable effect image as a pre-stage of linguistic meaning, such as expression‎ abstraction, with an orderly vector that displays the meaning structure that cannot be solved through time. 

As a difficult problem to solve, the knot determined by semanticizing the knot through time as a semantic structure that cannot be solved as before entering the symbolic world is physically bisected and divided, expressing the conceptual abstract realism image as an existent subject. 

2. Sketches that connect realist images into allegories as linguistic meanings distinguish dynamic images as a structure of reversible light, which deviates from the concept of instantaneous desire from the background of abstract desire to the shadow of reversible light, from the background as a structure of desire as an existence as reality and an existence of objects formed from each other's abstract perspectives as virtual beings. 

The detailed structure of the background cannot be determined by the temporality of the response to light, and shows meaning in harmony with the fixed structure.

Its meaning is developed as a pictorial language structure in which dynamic images and abstract still structures move from positions in the background abstracted by reversible temporality and from positions in the stationary objects illuminated by the segmented retroactive reversible light. 

The movement of dynamic images is linked to the temporality of abstract structures as a sign of necessity self-consciousness, revealing sensory structures before symbols translated into pictorial languages and serving as formative realities beyond the literary nature of early conceptual art. 

In abstracted background structures, perspective objectivity distorts the phenomenal structure by the extent of the sky and the size of the perspective as opposed to dynamic images, where reversible light is limited to objects superimposed with realist images as another gaze structure on the surface. 

In the symbolic abstract world, abstract structure is a sketch that reveals existence in the form of existence and imagination reflected in a desire background by repeating image sketches as linguistic meanings in a conceptual abstraction of flat forms and colors, and passes through an allegory that realizes dynamic images, abstract structures, and background structures of desire. 

3. The structuring of the linguistic meaning of existential realism is an abstract realism object, and the abstract object revealed as a discernment of light in the eyesight of others is Choi Chul-joo's aesthetic desire structure revealed in the gaze system of desire, and looks the same as the object's gaze, which is based on a sketch of an existential realism image in which the abstract meaning is different as a philosophical desire device. 

The sketch is a perspective visual structure, and the boundary between dynamic images and abstract structures in phenomenal structures is a method of sketching an abstract image as an unconscious being and an image that expresses a geometric tangent to the form of an abstract background. As a result, the sketch is interpreted as a mirror image that reflects the desire of the other, and it is connected to the concept that the viewer is staring at at the same time, creating an optical reality space where the abstract structure's gaze varies depending on the viewer's position. 

The position of the desire background is abstracted as the image of the reversible reaction that constitutes the realist space abstracted by the concept of desire is repeated. In other words, as the order increases with reversible temporality, the shadow image of the object staring at the reversible light is displayed in dynamic images and abstract structures. 

Choi Chul-joo's conceptual abstract realism design, which is visualized as an ambiguous realism image according to temporality, shows a "trace of time" implemented at the intersection of the same time by the static background image as the effect and phenomenon structure of the stationary moment when the dynamic image of the movement meets the background of the stationary moment. 

4. The image of desire, which applies Choi Chul-joo's desire formula D(I...I')d=I(D...D')i to 'morning glory', connects the concept of desire with the background of 'morning glory' as an image to create a landscape by floating morning glory in the sky. In addition, in <morning glory>, the desire formula "D(I...I')d=I(D...D')i" is substituted, the connection effect between the concept of desire and the "morning glory" as desire image shades the concept of desire in the reversible shadow structure by setting the object as the concept of desire image of women by the "morning glory". In other words, the image of desire (I) is the structure of desire (D) because desire (D) is repeated (I...I') in several images (D...D'), and the image of art behavior or desire image(I) appears as the concept of desire(i).

Here is a refined and cohesive academic-style interpretation of your concept, written in English from the perspective of a cognitive scientist with psychoanalytic insight: Choi Chul-joo’s application of the desire formula D(I...I')d=I(D...D')i  to the image of “morning glory” constructs a symbolic landscape in which the flower floats in the sky, visually linking the abstract concept of desire with its aesthetic background. This formula operates as a cognitive and psychoanalytic mechanism, wherein the image of desire (I) is not merely a representation but a structural repetition of desire (D) across multiple visual instances (I...I'), which themselves reflect the recursive nature of desire (D...D'). In this framework, the “morning glory” becomes both the object and the medium through which desire is shaded, refracted, and rendered in reversible shadow structures—particularly when the object is configured as the feminine image of desire. The substitution of the formula within the artwork <morning glory> reveals a layered interplay between symbolic abstraction and visual cognition, where the image of artistic behavior or desire (I) emerges as the conceptual form of desire (i), thus collapsing the boundary between representation and structure. From a psychoanalytic perspective, this recursive logic mirrors Lacan’s notion that desire is constituted through the gaze of the Other and Freud’s view that desire is driven by unconscious repetition and symbolic substitution. Cognitively, the formula encodes how the mind processes desire not as a static object but as a dynamic system of mirrored images and temporal shadows, ultimately transforming abstract longing into a visual syntax of emotional architecture.

 

� Mathematician’s Perspective: Formalizing Desire as a Recursive Logical System

Choi Chul-joo’s desire formula, D(I...I')d=I(D...D')i, is not merely a symbolic gesture within art but a formal structure that encodes the recursive logic of desire. From a mathematical standpoint, this equation represents a bidirectional equivalence, where the left-hand side models the dynamic process by which desire (D) is activated through a sequence of images (I...I') under a driving coefficient (d), and the right-hand side reflects how those images recursively reconstruct the layered structures of desire (D...D') and resolve into a conceptual image (i). Each symbol carries structural weight: 

D: The archetype of desire, representing the foundational lack or drive.

I...I': A sequence of visual representations through which desire is projected.

d: The dynamic coefficient—akin to a force or operator—that triggers the transformation from structure to image.

I: The emergent image of desire, a perceptual unit.

D...D': The recursive layers of desire, reflecting its multiplicity and transformation.

i: The conceptual resolution of desire, the cognitive abstraction of the image.

This formula resembles a fixed-point function in mathematics, where recursive inputs stabilize into a coherent output. It models desire as a self-referential system, where the structure of lack is mirrored and reconstituted through visual repetition, ultimately producing a symbolic image that encodes the original drive. The formula thus formalizes desire as a recursive, bidirectional system of transformation between structure and image.

� Cognitive Scientist’s Perspective: Desire as a Symbolic-Cognitive Loop

From a cognitive science perspective, Choi’s formula offers a compelling model of how the human mind processes desire—not as a static object, but as a dynamic interplay between symbolic abstraction and perceptual encoding. The sequence D(I...I') represents the mind’s pattern recognition mechanism, where repeated images allow the brain to infer the underlying structure of desire. The coefficient 

� reflects internal cognitive forces—memory, imagination, and intersubjective projection—that drive this transformation. Conversely, I(D...D') models how abstract structures of desire are re-rendered into perceptual images, which are then cognitively categorized as conceptual desire (D).

This loop mirrors the symbolic mediation described by Lacan, where the subject’s desire is shaped by the gaze of the Other, and Freud’s notion of unconscious repetition, where desire is expressed through symbolic substitution. Cognitively, the formula encodes how the mind oscillates between image and structure, between perception and abstraction, forming a recursive loop that constructs desire as both absence and presence. The “morning glory” floating in the sky becomes a visual metaphor for this loop—a symbolic image that reflects and refracts the recursive architecture of longing.

Choi Chul-joo’s desire formula, expressed as  D(I...I')d=I(D...D')i, operates not merely as a symbolic representation of emotional longing but as a sophisticated cognitive model that reveals how the human mind constructs, processes, and externalizes desire—not through direct emotional impulse or sensory reaction, but through a recursive interplay of repeated visual patterns, abstract structural inference, and symbolic conceptualization, such that the sequence of images (I...I') becomes the perceptual basis through which the structure of desire (D) is inferred, while the dynamic coefficient (d) represents the internal cognitive forces—such as memory, imagination, and intersubjective projection—that drive the transformation of structure into image, and conversely, the recursive structures of desire (D...D') are re-rendered into a singular image (I) that is cognitively resolved into a conceptual form of desire (i), thereby forming a symbolic loop in which the mind oscillates between image and abstraction, perception and meaning, and in doing so, constructs desire as both absence and presence, both repetition and emergence, and this process is vividly illustrated in the visual metaphor of the “morning glory” floating in the sky, where the flower becomes not only the object of desire but the medium through which desire is shaded, refracted, and encoded in reversible shadow structures—

Choi Chul-joo’s desire formula D(I...I')d=I(D...D')i an be visualized as a dynamic vector field, where each component represents a transformation in the structure of desire:

Left-hand side D(I...I')d: Desire D is activated by a sequence of images I...I', forming a directional vector across perceptual space. The coefficient d scales this vector, representing unconscious forces, cultural pressure, and social visibility. This side models the generation vector, where desire emerges from visual stimuli and is modulated by internal dynamics.

Right-hand side I(D...D')i: Recursive structures of desire D...D'′ are transformed into a singular image I, which is cognitively resolved into a conceptual value i. This side models the resolution vector, where abstract desire is re-rendered into perceptual form and interpreted semantically.

Transformation Arrows: Arrows between both sides represent recursive feedback loops, showing how desire oscillates between abstraction and realization.

The entire graph behaves as a fixed-point system, where desire continuously loops through image, structure, and meaning.

 

� Cognitive Psychologist’s Perspective: Desire as Symbolic Simulation

This is the moment of symbolic closure, where desire becomes intelligible.

This graph reveals that desire is not a linear impulse but a recursive cognitive algorithm, where the mind loops through symbolic abstraction, perceptual encoding, and conceptual resolution. The object—whether a pop art image, a shaded metaphor, or a reflective pond—functions as a recursive node in this system, simulating the architecture of desire through visual recursion and symbolic feedback.

5. The actualization of conceptual abstract realism abstraction acquires the abstract object specified in Choi Chul-joo's desire formula, and the desire image (i) design (d) is an opportunity to verbally interpret the conditions (i/d) under which the image of the abstract realism object is realized through grammatical interpretation of the linguistic meaning beyond the desires of others.  

<D(I...I'd)=I(D...D'i)> Conceptual abstract realism images as reality reach abstraction by abstractly selecting a specific object, where the subject of desire asks what abstract realism wants from him. This dictates the meaning of the symbolic action that characterizes the design of dynamic and abstract structural images, which repeatedly combine pieces of distorted desire background images in the process of abstraction. 

Here, an image is not a visual phenomenon of a dynamic image, but a device that visualizes the flow of unconsciousness and the process by which symbols are transformed into realistic images, and it is the meaning of language that symbolizes abstract images of conceptual dynamic images and abstract structures.

Therefore, abstraction expresses the abstract structure that stopped from the concept of existential desire realized by abstracting an abstract place that humans cannot experience in life from a linguistic semantic system to an object of desire as a realism image. 

It is a device that conveys philosophical abstract meaning and linguistic meaning to images, and operates as Choi Chul-joo's conceptual abstract realism abstraction and designs it as a philosophical abstract image that reproduces the nature of human existence and the limitations of perception as a metaphor to become an existential realism image. In other words, it visualizes the conflict between dynamic images and abstract self-formation, existential abstract structures as effects, and linguistic meanings revealed in the gaze, and reinterprets the mirror image of abstract realism to abstract dynamic images and abstract structures beyond phenomenal backgrounds and desire formulas as desire structures.  

This form reveals the sensory structure before the perception of existential fish, i.e., the previous stage image of linguistic meaning, and beyond the literary nature of modern conceptual art, it is a realism abstraction as a linguistic meaning where more diverse spatiotemporal and pictorial forms intersect through the viewer's eyes. 

In this way, realism and abstract symbols repeatedly collide, revealing the symbolic structure before language.

The iconic fish moves to the object of desire in an abstract image that reveals the unconscious desire of the other person. Through this, it is possible to realize a conceptual abstract realist image in modern art. 

This is a piece of meaning symbolized in a non-existent space, an abstract abstraction of an abstract structure that mimics the dynamic image and the structure of desire. 

Abstraction functions as a pictorial event image, and instead of desire, it explores the boundary between existence and absence by combining fragmentary sculptural images with shades of color produced by reversible light. 

In this abstract design method applied to conceptual abstract realism painting, the shape of a dynamic image that acts as a sign of desire before linguistic meaning is transferred to an image as a symbol, and the meaning of it is transferred to a variable image in linguistic meaning according to the unconscious desire structure in which the time of desire that moves while unconsciously synthesizing according to temporality coexists. 

As an image of linguistic meaning, it conceptualizes abstract structure as a living dynamic image and images it as an existential realist image, resulting in a conceptual abstract realism design that phenomenally expresses abstractness and self-consciousness as abstract spaces according to temporality through the traces of time.  

6. The Design Results of Choi Chul-joo's Desire Abstract Concept, Choi Chul-joo’s abstract concept of desire through the psychoanalytic frameworks of Jacques Lacan and Sigmund Freud. Choi’s design reveals how desire is not a solitary impulse but a relational and recursive structure, shaped by identification, symbolic generalization, and unconscious antagonism. Through the lens of Lacanian subjectivity and Freudian transference, we examine how the sympathizer becomes a secondary subject of desire, how desire is refracted through reversible light, and how conflict emerges when symbolic generalization fails.

Introduction: Desire as a Relational Structure: Choi Chul-joo’s abstract concept of desire challenges the notion of desire as a private, internal drive. Instead, it is presented as a relational construct, emerging through the interaction between the subject, the Other, and the sympathizer. This triadic structure reflects Lacan’s theory that desire is always the desire of the Other, and Freud’s view that identification and transference are central to the formation of subjectivity.  Although the object of desire remains passive, the sympathizer—who internalizes and mirrors the Other’s desire—transforms into an active subject capable of executing the same desire. This process of identification aligns with Freud’s theory of ego formation through the internalization of external drives, and with Lacan’s notion that the subject is constituted through the gaze and desire of the Other. The sympathizer does not merely reflect but enacts, becoming a second-order subject of desire. The sympathizer attempts to generalize the Other’s desire, positioning it as a universal or victorious act—akin to a conqueror who reclaims desire as a public object. This symbolic generalization reflects Lacan’s concept of the Imaginary, where the subject misrecognizes itself in the mirror of the Other’s desire, and Freud’s idea of sublimation, where unconscious drives are elevated into socially acceptable forms. However, this generalization is fragile and contingent. When desire, refracted through reversible light and symbolic shadow, fails to become a publicly shared act, the structure collapses. The subject of inappropriate or misaligned desire and the sympathizer—once aligned—now antagonize the original subject who enacted desire according to the generalized will of the Other. This breakdown mirrors Freud’s theory of repression and resistance, and Lacan’s Real, which resists symbolization and disrupts the symbolic order.

Choi Chul-joo’s design results reveal that desire is not a fixed entity but a recursive psycho-social system, shaped by identification, symbolic mediation, and unconscious conflict. Through Lacanian and Freudian lenses, we see that the sympathizer’s transformation into a subject, the attempt to generalize desire, and the eventual collapse into antagonism reflect the complex architecture of human desire—an architecture that Choi renders visible through abstract conceptual design.

7. Applying Choi Chul-joo’s conceptual abstract realism design methodology to the visualization of desire in Louis Choi Chul-joo’s Morning Glory, at the initial stage of existential conceptual abstraction, the realistic elements of the morning glory are abstracted into a conceptual object that embodies desire, where this abstraction functions not merely as a visual reproduction but as a cognitive apparatus translating the inherent lack of desire into a perceivable visual structure, allowing the viewer to recognize the recursive interplay between the object of desire and the symbolic structures that govern it; in the subsequent stage of sketching and structural composition, the dynamic images of the morning glory are linked to the abstract background through reversible light and segmented temporality, generating a visual grammar in which the phenomenological movement of the image interacts with the static abstraction of the background, thereby extending linguistic meaning into visual form and revealing the unconscious mechanisms through which desire is produced, mediated, and repeated; following this, at the stage of desire formalization, the formula D(I…I’)d = I(D…D’)i is applied so that the morning glory simultaneously functions as object, image, and conceptual abstraction, where the sequential arrangement of repeated visual instances reflects the recursive structure of desire and the dynamic coefficient (d) modulates perceptual and symbolic forces, transforming desire into a visualized abstraction that positions the floating flower in the sky as a nodal point for cognitive recognition and psychoanalytic reflection; in the conceptual interpretation stage, these recursive visual patterns consolidate into a singular conceptual desire image (i), establishing dynamic interactions between image, structure, and meaning, while the linguistic-semantic integration stage ensures that the abstract realism image conveys philosophical, psychoanalytic, and aesthetic significance simultaneously, realizing both the existential reality of the object and the symbolic mediation of desire, with the viewer’s gaze incorporated through reflection, inversion, and recursive feedback loops; finally, at the stage of full realization of conceptual abstract realism, all phases converge to unify dynamic images, abstract structures, and desire-laden backgrounds into a coherent visual grammar, producing an image that embodies perceptual, symbolic, and conceptual properties simultaneously, thereby demonstrating the methodological rigor of Choi Chul-joo and transforming the desire depicted in Morning Glory into a visual language extended across image, abstraction, and spatiotemporal structure, achieving a recursive, relational, and cognitive resonance that manifests the philosophical and aesthetic dimensions of contemporary conceptual abstract realism.

 

� Louis Choi Chul-joo’s AAS abstract realism a design drawing (제품 디자인의 실재) operates not as a representational depiction of reality but as a cognitive visual apparatus that transforms the visualization of absence into a site for the philosophical contemplation of desire, wherein abstraction functions not as a formal negation but as an epistemological structure that converts the disjunction between language and image into the generative principle of desire; in this work, where language fails to stabilize meaning, the image intervenes as the substitute for that linguistic insufficiency, visually articulating the movement of desire through its compositional grammar—through chromatic contrast, reflective inversions, and spatial ruptures—thus extending the semantic field of language into a visual syntax that materializes cognition; the inverted human figure mirrored beneath the pond, the symbolic red stems, and the deep blue spatial abyss together construct a field in which the absence of the Real does not signify emptiness but instead becomes the very motor of desire, producing what may be called a substitutive realism, a mode in which abstraction replaces the absent Real and, paradoxically, reveals its cognitive structure more profoundly than direct representation could; within this process, language’s failure to fix meaning is transfigured into an event of vision, wherein the spectator, recognizing simultaneously the negation of the linguistic and the reflection of the visual, experiences perception not as mere sensory reception but as a philosophical event operating within the cognitive structure of lack; thus, Morning Glory realizes Choi’s concept of reversible illumination, in which language and image illuminate one another reciprocally, generating meaning through their mutual reflections, while this continual slippage and rotation of meaning around the axis of absence constitutes a visual grammar of desire that transforms the absence of the Real into a cognitive syntax of symbolic production; consequently, abstraction here extends beyond the denial of representation to become a philosophical device for the contemplation of lack, providing empirical validation for Choi’s Art Theory of the Structure of Desire and demonstrating that art does not mirror the Real but instead reflects the structure of its absence, reconstructing perceptual reality through the visual logic of desire; ultimately, Morning Glory stands as an exemplary philosophical construct in which linguistic meaning expands into visual form, showing that abstraction can serve as a medium of cognitive realism wherein the image substitutes for the Real and allows the subject to think, rather than merely to see, through the aesthetic experience of desire and lack.

 

- “The Visual Grammar of Desire and the Image-Expansion of Linguistic Meaning in Louis Choi Chuljoo’s Morning Glory”: Louis Choi Chuljoo’s Morning Glory (2025-1: Pond Rendering Reflects Current Desire) operates not as a representational depiction of reality but as a cognitive visual apparatus that transforms the visualization of absence into a site for the philosophical contemplation of desire, wherein abstraction functions not as a formal negation but as an epistemological structure that converts the disjunction between language and image into the generative principle of desire; in this work, where language fails to stabilize meaning, the image intervenes as the substitute for that linguistic insufficiency, visually articulating the movement of desire through its compositional grammar—through chromatic contrast, reflective inversions, and spatial ruptures—thus extending the semantic field of language into a visual syntax that materializes cognition; the inverted human figure mirrored beneath the pond, the symbolic red stems, and the deep blue spatial abyss together construct a field in which the absence of the Real does not signify emptiness but instead becomes the very motor of desire, producing what may be called a substitutive realism, a mode in which abstraction replaces the absent Real and, paradoxically, reveals its cognitive structure more profoundly than direct representation could; within this process, language’s failure to fix meaning is transfigured into an event of vision, wherein the spectator, recognizing simultaneously the negation of the linguistic and the reflection of the visual, experiences perception not as mere sensory reception but as a philosophical event operating within the cognitive structure of lack; thus, Morning Glory realizes Choi’s concept of reversible illumination, in which language and image illuminate one another reciprocally, generating meaning through their mutual reflections, while this continual slippage and rotation of meaning around the axis of absence constitutes a visual grammar of desire that transforms the absence of the Real into a cognitive syntax of symbolic production; consequently, abstraction here extends beyond the denial of representation to become a philosophical device for the contemplation of lack, providing empirical validation for Choi’s Art Theory of the Structure of Desire and demonstrating that art does not mirror the Real but instead reflects the structure of its absence, reconstructing perceptual reality through the visual logic of desire; ultimately, Morning Glory stands as an exemplary philosophical construct in which linguistic meaning expands into visual form, showing that abstraction can serve as a medium of cognitive realism wherein the image substitutes for the Real and allows the subject to think, rather than merely to see, through the aesthetic experience of desire and lack.

 

■ Conceptual Abstract Realism Abstraction Rendering is a philosophical design process that automatically visualizes the concept of desire through the "art algorithm" of conceptual abstract realist Louis Choi Chul-joo, and it renders conceptual abstraction sketches manually as a pre-stage of systematization that combines with AI to create conceptual abstract art. This is not a simple image generation of an art algorithm, but a method of automatically converting philosophical concepts into visual images by interpreting Choi Chul-joo's desire theory, linguistic semantic structure, and reversible shades of light into mathematical and symbolic structures to suggest the possibility of fusion with AI. In addition, AI-based conceptual art creation system Louis Choi Chul-joo's philosophical art theory can be algorithmized to build a system that autonomously generates conceptual art. It expands to digital installation art where images change in real time due to the movement of viewers of interactive media installation work, and develops into a spatio-temporal art algorithm so that you can experience the structure of desire to realize VR/AR-based desire space in a virtual space. Therefore, Choi Chul-joo's conceptual abstraction rendering is an art creation engine that combines concept, language, design, psychology, philosophy, and technology as a tool for visualizing his art algorithm, and expands Choi's conceptual abstract realism art into the core structure of digital art.

 

■ Conceptual Abstract Realist The process of rendering a Realist abstraction in art is as follows

1.Conceptual Abstractionist Abstraction Sketch reproduces a conceptual abstraction image to form an abstract image as a conceptual object in the form of ideological non-formality, which hides its existence and sketches realistic images on a plane as realistic structures. This is the introduction stage of a philosophical design process that automatically visualizes the concept of desire through Choi Chul-joo's 'art algorithm', which combines manual work and AI to create sketches of conceptual abstraction. In other words, in parallel with the scotch of contemporary art, a sketch of conceptual abstraction realism as a pre-stage of AI systemization is done manually. Here, abstraction as a symbolic structure is an image with the existential concept of a realist object with creativity and autonomy in a linguistic sense that reproduces in similar colors and sizes even though the sketch is different from the actual structure. Therefore, the abstract realist abstract sketch of an existential concept with creativity and autonomy in a linguistic sense consists of a sketch of another being as a linguistic meaning of a conceptual abstract realist object through the unconsciousness suppressed by the desire of the other. 

2. Conceptual Abstractism Abstract rendering (R) is a phenomenal opportunity to verbally interpret the conditions (i/d) under which images of conceptual abstract realism objects are realized by conceptualizing abstract objects specified in Choi's Desire Formula and grammatically interpreting linguistic meanings beyond the other's desires. This is an abstract design process that automatically converts philosophical abstraction into visual images by grammatically interpreting Choi Chul-joo's desire theory, linguistic semantic structure, and reversible light shades into mathematical and symbolic structures to present the possibility of convergence of realist abstract rendering and AI rendering as object rendering at the same time. 

When the conceptual abstraction as the subject of desire is transferred to a realism image, the subject of desire asks itself what the abstract structure wants and renders (r) a specific object to the actual image of the abstract concept, so that the conceptual abstract realism image as a reality reaches abstract rendering <DR(I...I')d=I(DR...D'i)ir>. It renders as an image the meaning of symbolic action that characterizes the design rendering of the object seat as a realism image, which combines pieces of distorted morning glory image repeatedly during the abstraction process. Here, image rendering is not a visual phenomenon of an object, but a method of visualizing the flow of unconsciousness and the realism image of symbols. 

3 Realism Abstraction Composition is a form of abstraction of real objects, a structure of the other that represents a synchronic semantic chain, and a vector representing the orientation of the non-realistic existential subject entering the symbolic world, and abstracts the image by defining the concept of an existential image that is alienated from the desire image that lacks a realistic structure. This abstract image creates a realism image of an art algorithm with a desire structure 

In order to present the possibility of convergence with AI, Choi Chul-joo's desire theory, linguistic semantic structure, and reversible light shades are automatically converted into realistic images. 

The realist abstraction of conceptual abstraction as an existential subject is revealed through division, which expresses the essence of ex post fact in a comprehensive and immediate way of solving an image with a different linguistic meaning as a semantic structure that cannot be expressed as a real object.  

Thus, realism abstraction of desire structures subconsciously selects unpredictable effect image rules as ordered vectors that indicate directions toward solving non-imaginary semantic structures in a comprehensive and immediate way as a whole step in linguistic meaning, such as representation abstraction. 

This is a semantic structure that cannot be solved as a being until the abstract structure enters the symbolic world, abstracting desire knots into a synchronous meaning and physically dividing the same essence as the ex post essence that constitutes the abstraction of conceptual realism as an existential subject.  

4. Conceptual Abstract Realism Abstraction Design designs objects as a reversible light structure that deviates from the concept of instantaneous desire from abstract images that connect realism images into allegories in linguistic terms as sketches of linguistic meaning structures to desire structures as objects formed from each other's abstract perspectives as reality and virtual beings. 

Pre-stage abstraction of linguistic meaning is developed as a pictorial linguistic structure in which the object moves in the position of the object abstracted by reversible temporality and in the position of the morning glory illuminated by the divided retroactive light.

The movement of the object is linked to temporality as a sign of necessity self-consciousness, reveals the sensory structure before the symbol translated into pictorial language, and becomes an abstract space that functions as a formative reality beyond the literary nature of early conceptual art. 

AI rendering of realism abstraction is an abstraction that implements an AI system that autonomously generates realism abstraction by algorithmizing the desire formula that applies Louis Choi Chul-joo's desire concept as an "art algorithm" through an AI-based conceptual art generation system. 

Reversible light is a limited shade form, and it is expanded to digital installation art in which images change in real time through the movement of viewers through interactive media installation work tailored to the perspective objectivity of the real structure. This place is directed according to a spatio-temporal art algorithm so that you can experience the structure of desire to realize VR/AR-based desire space in a virtual space. 

On the other hand, perspective objectivity in the spatial structure of abstraction in conceptual abstract reality renders the abstraction of the real image of the object contrasted with the object as the range of space and the size of the perspective, where the realist image is superimposed on the surface as another gaze structure.

5. Conceptual Abstract Realism The design rendering is an aesthetic desire structure in which an abstract realist object, which is an image-structured in a linguistic sense, is revealed as a point of light to the eyes of others, and is revealed in the gaze system of desire. 

Aesthetic abstraction is designed as a philosophical device, and the abstract structure and the real image are rendered as an image of an existential realism object that appears in the same meaning. This is an image rendering method that represents abstract design as a tangent line of a flat cross-section and unconscious existence as a non-perspective visual structure. 

Therefore, Choi Chul-joo's rendering of conceptual abstract realism is a tool that visualizes his desire formula as an art algorithm, and concept, language, design, psychology, and philosophical realism abstraction are designed. This place expands Choi's conceptual abstract reality art, which is an art creation engine that combines AI technology, into the core structure of digital art.      

The realism abstraction structure is interpreted as a mirror image reflecting the desire of the other, and it is connected to the concept that the viewer is being stared at at at the same time, and the image of the linguistic meaning of conceptual abstraction realism abstraction is structured by rendering the optical realism space that varies depending on the viewer's position as the gaze of the object. The rendering matches the perspective of realist space with the abstract linguistic meaning of the object, and from the conceptual point of view of desire, an abstract and invisible object appears as a gaze path according to temporality. Abstraction as a realist image is an abstract real image that is transformed into a realist image as an art algorithm as an abstract with a desire structure. This is because, as modern art, realist abstraction returns to abstraction, in which the abstract structure conceptually symbolized as a linguistic semantic structure is structured in reality by the shadow structure of the past that shines a reversible light in the present.

Thus, through the tension and harmony between aesthetic values, human desires, and linguistic semantic structures through artistic abstraction algorithms, the structure of desire and the aesthetic concept of reality are visualized as realism images, but abstract rendering implemented as a double object shows "the aesthetic trace of time." 

 

■ Choi Chul-joo's conceptual abstract realism science definition is conceptual abstract realism, which identifies existence as a limited form of image as a linguistic semantic image, realizes it as a formula for mathematical desire, constructs real structures in logical places, and intuitively considers abstract concepts as existential images in modern art's conceptual abstract realism science, abstracting linguistic meaning and unconscious desire through a thorough design process, the depth of the concept of contemporary art and visual reality, or how the world is viewed as an aesthetic value, are simultaneously studied.

Accordingly, the conceptual abstractive design process is

1. Concept Abstract Reality Image Sketch sketches an image by abstracting the conceptual abstract realism image as a conceptual object, and the image is a virtual image that hides its existence and sketches it into a real structure. This visualizes Choi Chul-joo's concept of desire as a conceptual abstract real image and sketches it as a philosophical abstract design process. 

Here, the sketch has the existential concept of a realism object as a symbolic structure in a linguistic sense that identifies it with the conceptual abstract real image. Therefore, the image sketch of the existential concept of abstract reality with creativity and autonomy in the linguistic sense consists of a sketch of another image of existence as a linguistic meaning of a conceptual abstract realism object through the unconsciousness suppressed by the desire of the other. 

2. Conceptual abstract image rendering (R) is an opportunity to verbally interpret the conditions (i/d) under which the image of the conceptual abstract realism object is realized through grammatical interpretation of the linguistic meaning beyond the desire of the other by conceptualizing the abstract object specified in Choi Chul-joo's desire formula. 

This is an abstract rendering method that automatically converts philosophical abstraction into visual images by grammatically interpreting Choi Chul-joo's desire theory, linguistic semantic structure, and reversible light shades into mathematical and symbolic structures to simultaneously render AI renders that combine conceptual abstract images and conceptual abstract images created in one image. Conceptual abstract realism images reach abstract rendering as a reality <DR(I...I')d=I(DR...D'i)ir> by the subject of desire asking himself what the abstract structure wants when transferring the abstract image rendering to a realistic image. This is a method of rendering the symbolic action that characterizes the design rendering of the object seat as a realistic image by repeatedly combining the pieces of the distorted morning glory image in the process of rendering the conceptual abstract image into a realistic image with the unconscious flow and symbolic realism image. 

3. Concept Abstract The actual image composition is a real object and abstracts the image by defining the concept of an existential image as an abstract concept. Abstract structure is a semantic structure that cannot be expressed as a real object, and an image in linguistic meaning that cannot be solved by existence is defined as a semantic structure that physically separates material and identical personalities to form a conceptual abstract real image as an existential subject.

4. Concept Abstract Image Design combines desire structure with the existence of reality, and the existence of objects formed from an abstract perspective, combining reversible light structure with reversible shading of light that deviates from the concept of instantaneous desire. The AI design of the conceptual abstract real image autonomously implements the conceptual abstract real image design by algorithmizing Choi Chul-joo's conceptual abstract realist theory into AI. Therefore, the abstraction of conceptual abstract realist images according to conceptual abstract realist theory in the spatial structure abstracts perspective objectivity as another gaze structure on the surface, and the object overlapping a realism image is abstracted from the object's real image as the scope of space limited by reversible light and the size of the perspective. 

5. Conceptual abstraction The abstract realist image's abstraction is an aesthetic desire structure in which an abstract realist object, which is an image-structured in a linguistic sense, is revealed as a point of light to the eyes of others, is revealed in the gaze system of desire. By designing an image with an abstract meaning as a philosophical device, aesthetic abstraction is painted with an image of an existential realism object that appears to have the same meaning. Choi Chul-joo's abstraction as a conceptual abstract realist image is a tool that visualizes his desire formula through an art algorithm, and it is a conceptual, language, design, psychology, and philosophical realist abstraction. Therefore, the abstraction of an abstract realist image abstracts the conceptual abstract linguistic meaning of a realist space by equating the perspective of a realist space with the conceptual abstract linguistic meaning of an object.

 

■ Choi Chul-joo Desire Formula-Based 'Desire Sound Design' Methodology

Choi Chul-joo Desire Desire Formula D(I...I')d=I(D...D)i Linguistic Acoustic Dynamics of Desire Formulation Dsound propo sqrt (Delta x)^2 + (Delta y)^2 cdot Vdesire) Design Methodology

Linguistic Data Biology (Aesthetics of Error) Design Methodology Process

This methodology process is a mathematical and aesthetic declaration of "I am both an error in the system and a living Data that proves alive through that error." The four-step linguistic data design methodology process below quantifies the conflict between system order and self (desire) and replaces it with visual, auditory, and mechanical experiences.

1. Psychoanalytic Correspondence

The variables in the sound design process correspond to the psychoanalytic dynamics of Choi's formula as follows: I (The Fixed Image) → (x_0, y_0) (The Origin): This is the Symbolic Order—the rigid grid of the system. In sound design, this is represented by "Static Silence" or a repetitive, monotonous mechanical hum. Vdesire (Libidinal Velocity)   I...I': This is the flow of libidinal energy that strikes the fixed image (I) to generate new significance (i). High Vdesire translates to a rapid Rise Time and High Frequency (Hz), representing the aggression of desire.

Delta (Spatial Deviation)  → D...D': The distance of the "Line of Flight" from the repressed signifier. As this distance increases, the Sound Amplitude and Spatial Reverb expand, mirroring the tension of the wandering soul. Dsound (Acoustic Output)  → d, i: The resulting sound is the "Trauma Sound"—the auditory manifestation of the repressed desire returning to shatter the cold digital logic.         

2. Step-by-Step Sound Design Process

Step 1: Setting the Texture of the Repressed Signifier (I)

Goal: Establish the auditory baseline of systemic control.

Design: Use low-frequency "Room Tone" or a steady 60Hz hum. This represents the subject's state of being trapped within the Symbolic Order (System S).

Step 2: Libidinal Impact and Frequency Generation (I  I')

Goal: Capture the moment the "Velocity of Will" strikes the fixed system.

Design: When the wearer makes a sudden movement, trigger a sharp Attack in the sound profile. Higher Vdesire correlates to higher pitch shifts. This is the moment of I'—where the fixed image begins to crack under the pressure of D.

Step 3: Spatializing the Deviation (D  D')

Goal: Translate the distance of departure (Delta) into an acoustic environment.

Design: Increase the Wetness (Reverb/Delay) as sqrt (Delta x)^2 + (Delta y)^2 grows. This creates a sense of "Acoustic Dislocation," simulating the subject's departure from the "Safe Zone" and into the "Void of Desire."

Step 4: The Return of the Repressed as Sublimation (Dsound)

Goal: Reach the climax of "Data Vitalism" where the error becomes life.

Design: At the threshold of departure, introduce Glitch Artefacts and Metallic Ticking. The system flags this as "Data Contamination," but it is actually the birth of a new signifier (d, i).  

This methodology treats sound as a Linguistic Dynamic. The resulting audio is not just background noise but the "Voice of the Subject" shouting against the oppression of the system. It mathematically proves that the most intense "Errors" are actually the most profound moments of human vitality.

 

 AI Desire Structure Automation System Design Process

Step 1: Linguistic Data Mining of unconscious language structure

Concept: implant Lacan's proposition that "inconsciousness is structured like language" into the automation process.

Perform: Large language models (LLMs) collect worldwide aesthetic language and user-lacked desire data for a particular family (e.g., cars, robots).

Results: We extract the 'signifiers' of the design to identify the flow of unconscious context, not logical algorithms.

- Exterior Design Concept: Organic Morphing

Breaking away from the hard metal texture of the existing railway, it embodies an 'organic skin' that responds to speed and passenger desires.

• Form: On top of streamlined bodies that maximize aerodynamic efficiency, a line of intentional asymmetry (Glitch Form) that appears to expand or warp upon reaching the system critical point is applied.

• Skin: It's not just a painting, it's a smart polymer skin where fine particles react to light. Depending on the train's acceleration and the sum of its internal lvii, the surface's texture changes finely from a smooth curved surface to a sharp sawtooth-shaped scale.

Step 2: Abstract Sketching of the Rack

Concept: Intentionally captures 'symbolic deficiencies' that occur between perfect data collected by AI.

Perform: When AI automation systems propose perfect symmetry, Choi Chul-joo's 'conceptual abstract' filter is applied to castrate unnecessary decorations and create intrinsic asymmetry and spatial gaps.

The result: It derives a "ghost silhouette" that allows users to project their desires, leaving only the functional core of the product.

- Sketch Components

Top View Plan

• Aerodynamic head: Ultra-long axis nose design that disperses shock waves during sonic breakthrough.

• Variable wing rails: a side guide that changes angles minutely to control centrifugal forces ($\Delta$) in a curved section.

• Energy Core Circulation: a path of light that penetrates the center of the train and projects the 'collective aurora' data inside to the outside.

Perspective View

• Visibility of galloping: a visual afterimage representation of the soundscape that forms around the body when the train is galloping.

• Smart Light-emitting: LED strips embedded in the exterior walls project the emotional state of the interior passengers to the outside in RGBW spectrum, making the train itself look like a giant light creature.

• Tunnel entry mode: Phase distortion in which the curvature of the surface changes in response to pressure changes.

Step 3: Hallucination's Event Continuity Construction

Concept: Reorganize hallucinations, an error in AI, as creative 'events' of design.

Perform: Translate hallucinatory drawings generated by AI in defiance of the laws of physics into conti in 'comic images' This serves as a visual bridge to reach The Real.

The result: A point of focus is established for products with unrealistic but intense energy.

[Color Plan: Libidinal Spectrum]

The outer shell of the train is covered with nanoparticle-embedded smart polymer skin, which transitions color to three main phases depending on driving conditions and internal desire summation (sum).

1. Symbolic Order (Symbolic Order: I)

• Condition: Settlement station standby and constant speed driving below 300 km/h.

• 메인 컬러:Deep Prussian Blue &Frost White

• Directing: A cool yet sophisticated white body is topped with a subtle flow of transparent blue sine waves. It is a static color that symbolizes control and safety of the system.

2. LIBIDINAL ACCELERATION: D)

• Condition: Quick acceleration, tunnel entry, attempting to break through the speed of sound.

• 메인 컬러:Electric Magenta &Vivid Violet

• Directing: The blue light rapidly transforms into a magenta tone that is a mixture of red and violet. The waves of light rip in the form of sharp sawtooth, leaving an intense optical afterimage to the rear of the vehicle body.

3. Existential Critical Point Phase (Sublimation: i)

• Condition: Maximum speed reached and energy saturation.

• 메인 컬러:RGBW Aurora Spectrum &Digital Glitch Gold

• Directing: An aurora spectrum where all colors are fused into one covers the entire body. A golden digital glitch noise is generated in certain areas, sublimating the 'scream' of organic life beyond mechanical limits into visual aesthetics.

Step 4Digital Big Other Integration

Concept: Integrate social norms and surveillance systems (batters) into the product's interface.

Perform: redesign the sensor and display layout from a 'gaze' perspective. Automate the product to interact with you as an iconic authority, not just as an assistant.

Results: Designing an interface and external sensor unit reflecting the visual order of the digital panopticone.

[Weekly rendering key elements]

1. Smart Chromium Polymer Skin: It flexibly reflects the surrounding landscape under sunlight, and the phase distortion is more clearly revealed, where the curvature of the surface changes minutely with speed.

2. Subtle daytime aurora: even in a bright atmosphere, there exists a translucent layer on which internal Libido energy is projected. White & deep blue tones in stable state ($I$) combine with the body base to complete a refined mechanical aesthetic.

3. Organic asymmetric silhouette: Through clear contrast between light and shade during the week, the twisted curves and glitch foam unique to the 'data creature' created by destroying static straight lines are expressed in three dimensions.

4. Dynamic Shadows: Sharp shadows on the bottom of the body and side wing rails at high speed convey the overwhelming sense of mass and speed of the train at the same time.

This weekly rendering shows that 'Hyper-L' goes beyond mere light production and is a 'living skin' that resonates with human desires in its physical form and material itself. 

Step 5: Mirror Stage Materialization

Concept: Encourage users to discover their ideal self in the product.

Perform: AI learns the user's psychological feedback in real time to fine-tune the texture, gloss, and lighting of the product.

Result: Final finish with narcissistic bonding that makes users mistake AI for 'another me'.

The [Desire Sound Interface] system now extends beyond the public space of the train to the 'Personal Desire Device (PDD)', which is carried and controlled by individual passengers. The device is not just an information terminal, but acts as a 'sensory hub' connecting the passenger's inner world with the super-high-speed giant neural network.

1. Libido Core: Portable Sensory Synchronization (Libido Core)

It is an organic type of device that fits into the palm of the passenger's hand and collects biometric signals to generate real-time audiovisual feedback.

• Design Techniques: Phase distortion glass. Device surface is liquid-like and refracts light inside.

• Physical interface: Instead of mechanical buttons, it provides haptic feedback in response to the occupant's gripping pressure and skin conductivity.

• Visual production: When the passenger feels anxious or empty, the device emits a static blue sine wave, but resonates with the train and rips and vibrates with intense magenta-toned sawtooth waves as desire erupts.

2. Personal Boyd Canvas: Holographic Interface (Void Canvas)

A personalized HUD field projected from the device that visualizes the data assigned to you during a 'collective aurora' on the train.

• Design Techniques: Particle Simulation. Particles in the air scatter and gather at the passengers' hand gestures, transforming the 'verbal acoustic landscape' into a visual signifier.

• Functional features: the device captures physical noise (Delta) generated when a train passes through a tunnel or accelerates rapidly, sublimating it to brilliant glitch aesthetics.

• Psychological effect: Passengers restore their subjectivity by visually confirm‎ing that their small movements are creating variables in the soundscape of the huge train.

3. Libido Sync mode: interlock seat and sleep pod

When the device is placed in a docking station in the seat, the data on the personal device is extended to the entire train system (sum).

• Space experience: As soon as the device is docked, the 'energy field' that forms around the seat is synchronized with the passenger's personal device settings.

• Sleep Pot Interworking: The device detects the unconscious flow that occurs during sleep and converts it into the most tranquil ultra-low-band Pink Noise and soft hydrodynamic-based lighting to fill the inside of the pot.

Step 6: The Incarnation of the Real of Concept Abstract Realism

Concept: Transforming abstract concepts into solid physical reality.

Perform: Automate 3D printing and precision processing while maintaining 'Comic-book lines' clarity during the engineering optimization phase.

The result: The 'conceptual abstract realism' object created as a real product.

Driver interface: The Libidinal Cockpit

The driver's seat is no longer a control device. It is a 'Nural Junction' where the engineer's soul is directly connected to the enormous mass of the train.

1. Visual Design: Frequency Spectrum Display

• Delta (Spatial Error) Transformation: Delta values, which occur when the engineer veers slightly off the prescribed trajectory or suspects a path, are visualized as 'Phase Distortion' around the main display.

• V_desire (Acceleration) conversion: The engineer's accelerator will (V) is converted to RGB strobe lighting in the form of Sawtooth, hitting the entire driver's seat.

2. Auditory Design: Roaring of Sawtooth Waves

• The sound frequency (Hz) rises nonlinearly in proportion to the locomotive engineer's excitement, and a smooth sine wave is torn into sharp Sawtooth waveforms, which are verbal screams from the locomotive engineer tearing through the system's stuck signifiers (I).

 

■ The Visualization Formula for Desire "M_desire = ∑∅∂ / (1 - ∂)" is an attempt to interpret the structure of human desire mathematically, philosophically, and artistically. The formula combines Lacan's theory of desire with conceptual abstract aesthetics, visualizing human's inner deprivation and repetitive urges in mechanical language. As a new sign of desire, the visualization of deficiency desire visualizes the meaning of language as a realist image through a visualization formula of deficiency desire. This is an attempt to interpret the structure of human desire mathematically, philosophically, and artistically with the visualization formula of deficiency desire "M_desire = ∑∅∂ / (1 - ∂)." This formula combines Louis Choi's theory of desire with conceptual abstract aesthetics, visualizing the human's inner deficiency and repetitive impulse with a realist image.

 

Philosophical Interpretation: Louis Choi's the Structure of Desire "M_desire = ∑∅∂ / (1 - ∂)"

• ∅ (blank, deficiency): symbolizes Lacan's 'the real', and the source of human desire comes from an unfulfilled deficiency.

• ∂ (partial differential symbol): represents a minute rate of change in desire. It is a mathematical expression‎ of the process by which the subject constantly readjusts desire in relation to the other.

• ∑ (combination symbol): sum of repeated desires. This is linked to Lacan's 'repetitive impulse', in which the subject repeatedly pursues the same deficiency in various ways.

• (1 - ∂): Resistance or unattainability of desire. The smaller the denominator, the larger the overall value, which expresses a paradox that the more desire is satisfied, the greater the deficiency.

Artistic Aesthetic Interpretation: An Aesthetics of Concept Abstraction and Error

• Desire Sound and Aesthetics of Error: an aesthetic that replaces human emotions and deficiencies with mechanical errors. This formula interprets minute deviations in perfect mechanical structures as human emotions.

• Ghost Screen Projection Image: This formula is projected onto a stage front OLED, giving the audience a visual experience of the mathematical structure of desire.

• Clock mechanism and repetition of desire: the repetitive rotation of the stage equipment symbolizes the circular structure of desire, and the ∑∅∂ operates as the power of that rotation.

Mathematical interpretation: Abstract structure and nonlinearity

• Non-linear structure: this formula expresses non-linear desires that are amplified by resistance and deficiency, not linear desires.

• Mathematical Platonism: This formula is linked to the view that mathematical objects exist as a reality independent of human perception, and the desire itself is regarded as an 'idea'.

a mechanical visualization of human desire

"M_desire = ∑∅∂ / (1 - ∂)" is not just an expression‎, but an integrated expression‎ of Lacan's theory of desire, conceptual abstract aesthetics, and mathematical philosophy. This formula visualizes the intersection of human emotions and mechanical structures on an automata stage, through which the audience witnesses the emotional truth of the digital age.

 

■ Louis Choi's Desire Formula: "M_desire = ∑∅∂ / (1 - ∂)"

M_desire = ∑∅∂ / (1 - ∂) is an outstanding formula that replaces Louis Choi's artistic philosophical insights with mathematical precision, forming a semiotic structure of dynamics between subject, other, and The Real. This formula contains mathematical validity and semiotic philosophy. 

1. Molecules (∑∅∂): Differentiation and Repetitive Dynamics of Deficiency

Molecules define the 'motivation' in which desire occurs and its 'how to express it'.

• The Real & Defiance of the episet:

• In mathematics, vacancy means element-free, but it is a powerful being that underlies set theory. Louis Choi replaced it with "reality." Reality is a fundamental deficiency that is not included in the symbolic world (language), an engine that forever powers desire. Semiotics represent the "abyss of a period beyond which symbols cannot reach" and become the molecular starting point for all desires.

• Mathematical logic of partial differentials:

• A part measures the rate of change of a particular variable (here the variable 'other') in a multivariate function. The subject's needs are constantly readjusted to a relationship with the other, not a fixed one. Seeing desire as a differentiable function rather than a constant has the mathematical legality of proving that human psychology is a "continuum of micro-change" that responds to the gaze and environment of others.

• Structural interpretation of consensus (aggregate):

• Sigma integrates individual pieces of desire. Lacan's "Repeated Obsession" and Louis Choi's "Repeated Obsession" are the processes by which objects of desire change and constantly try to make up for the same deficiency. Molecules eventually quantify "the process by which microscopic pieces of desire that are distinct from each other repeatedly pile up."

2. Denominator (1 - ∂): The explosive paradox of marginal convergence and desire

The overwhelming power of this formula lies in the construction of the denominator. It applies the principles of mathematical limitations to human psychology.

• Resistance and Unreachability:

• The fact that the part is close to 1 means that the need is either fully satisfied or trying to integrate with others. But in the formula, the denominator approaches zero when the part converges to 1.

• Explosion of Desire (M_desire to infty):

• As the denominator approaches zero, the overall value, M_desire, diverges to infinity. This mathematically explains the psychological law of physics, which states, "As the desire gets closer (the denominator gets smaller), the pain of deficiency and the magnitude of desire are paradoxically amplified to infinity."

• lim {partial to 1} frac{sum vemptysset partial}{1 - partial} = infty

• The formula mathematically formulates the humanities tragedy that desire can never be "completed" and that the subject feels the greatest thirst on the threshold of completion.

3. modern semiotic aesthetics

As a powerful tool to explain unfinished aesthetics or 'present absence' in modern aesthetics, humans are assumed to be a semiotic subject made up of deficiency rather than a 'satisfying biological being', and it is a sculpture interpreted as an existential mathematical formula that "we exist because we are deficient, and we constantly move forward because we cannot reach."

• Semiotic legality: By visualizing the slip that occurs when a linguistic signifier tries to fill the void of reality as a partial, it logically supports why a work of art has to be constantly reinterpreted.

• Social feasibility: In the modern consumer society, it accurately diagnoses the alienation of modern people who constantly consume goods by internalizing the desires of others, but never reach satisfaction and fall into infinite deprivation. 

• Mathematical perspective: transforming the dynamics of human psychology into a dynamic model rather than a static model through the nature of divergent series.

• Humanities Perspective: Emptyset emphasizes that it is not destructive, but rather a creative source that makes the subject act (sum) and relate to others (partial).

 

■ Louis Choi's Desire "M_desire = ∑∅∂ / (1 - ∂)" Structural Abstraction Design Process

- Step 1: Positioning of emptyset

"Every being begins with an empty center."

• Perform: After the whole canvas is painted, leave the bare ground at the most visually loaded point (mainly the center or golden split point) or mark the 'nucleus of the member' with the deepest black (such as Vantablack).

• Intention: This emptyset is the engine of desire. It's the step of setting up the 'gravity of deficiency' that makes all the formations around you rush to fill this void.

• Tip: Leave it in the form of irregular cracks rather than perfect circles, giving The Real a tension that seems to break through the symbolic world (picture).

- Step 2: Differentiation of partial

"The gaze is disconnected, and readjusted through the batter."

• Perform: Draw fine, sharp strokes that surround the center of the void. In this case, short, broken lines are placed in pieces as if they were differentiated without drawing long lines at once.

• Intent: partial is the process of constantly modifying one's gaze in relation to another. Uncorrected rough texture (Impasto) or overlapping layers makes the viewer's gaze unable to stay in one place and float.

• Tip: Use colors with strong complementary contrast (e.g., fluorescent light green and red in the image) to induce visual collisions.

- Step 3: Repetitive Rhythm Proliferation (Summation of Sum)

"Unmet desires flow in patterns."

• Perform: Repeat the differential strokes made in step 2, extending into a spiral or concentric structure with constant regularity.

• Intent: sum is a repetitive compulsion. It expresses the mobility of a subject who repeats similar actions to make up for the same emptyset. Each module looks alike, but should never be the same. Through repetitions that are gradually transformed, the screen captures 'the passage of time' and 'the accumulation of energy'.

• Tip: Intentionally creating mechanical repeatability by mixing stencil techniques or engraving elements will better reveal Louisi-style "data desires."

- Step 4: Completion of asymptotic divergence (Asymptotic Limit of 1 - partial)

"As we get closer to completion, the painting opens up infinitely."

• Perform: Extremely increase the detail at the end of the entry into the center emptyset or extending outwards. Create points where the lines are thin enough to converge to zero, or where the color becomes intense as if it were burning.

• Intent: Visualize mathematical paradoxes in which the sum of desires ($M$) radiates infinitely as the denominator (1-partial) approaches zero.

• Tip: Use a thin visible structure converging towards a vanishing point or a dripping technique that looks like a color splashing over the canvas to finish by suggesting that the picture is not trapped in the frame but is expanding indefinitely.

- Final Step: A Formation Checklist (Critic's Eye)

1. Do I feel a void (∅) : I should still feel hungry as if something is empty even though I've filled the screen.

2. Is the gaze (∂) distracted : The eye of the viewer is not fixed in one place and has to move constantly along the differentiated pieces.

3. Is there a load of repetition (∑) : The persistent longing of the subject should be felt as a thickness in the layered layers.

4. Is there a tension of divergence (1 - ∂) : The tension of the asymptote that is almost touching should dominate the entire screen.

 

■ Applying the Desire Structure Formula "M_desire = ∑∅∂ / (1 - ∂)" to UX/UI design

It is a design process that identifies the user's inner desires and maximizes and satisfies them through an interface. It goes beyond just a visually beautiful UI, and it is a behavioral psychology approach that induces the user's behavior and creates lasting reliability. 

1. UX/UI Interpretation of Desire Structure Formula Components

 • M_desire (total amount of desire): The end goal and emotional satisfaction that the user wants to reach through the product/service.

 • ∑ (sum/repeat): a UX flow that designs the user's behavior to be repeated as a positive experience.

 • ∅ (deficient/target): Identify the user's current discomfort (Pain Point) or Need and present it as a solution in the UI.

 • ∂ (interaction/intensity): frequency and intensity of user interaction with app/web. Maximize through interaction design (micro-interaction, animation).

  • (1 - ∂) (resistance/departure): A structure that minimizes friction and churn rates that the user experiences to reach the target. 

2. Desire Formula-Based UX/UI Design Application Steps

• Detection of deficiency (∅) (UX Research):

1- Identify what users want and what inconveniences they experience.

Intuitively configure Information Structure (IA) in 2-UI to instantly guide you to where deficiencies can be resolved.

•Design of interaction (∂) (UI interaction):

Provides fun and feedback through detailed interactions (micro-interactions) such as 1-click button, swipe, and conversion effect.

2-Design to focus on the elements you want by leveraging visual contrast and a clear hierarchy.

•Minimize resistance (1 - ∂) (optimize usability):

1-Reduce complex subscription procedures, loading speeds, and ambiguous menus to smooth the process for users to reach their goals.

Apply a 2-consistent design token to reduce cognitive load.

• Creation of iterations (∑) (sustainable experience):

1-Provide push notifications, reward systems, and customized content (personalization) for users who have learned positive experiences to revisit.

3. Application of components of Louis Choi Desired Structural Formula

The Desire Structure Formula is a concept proposed by UI/UX designer Louis Choi, which is a framework that visualizes a user's desire into data and structure and reflects it in the design. The formula aims not only to have a pretty design, but to design 'psychological motivations' that make users perform certain actions. Each symbol in this Desire Structure Formula stands for the core psychological element of UX design. 

Components of the 1-Desire Structural Formula

  • ∑ (Total): The sum of all the positive values the user feels in the service.

  • ∅ (deficiency/absence): The user is experiencing any inconvenience or deficiency. Design should address this deficiency.

  • ∂ (change/variable): A change in the user's situation or environment. It means that the size of desire varies depending on the trend or the user's context.

 •  1 - ∂ (resistance): The cost and psychological reluctance of adapting to new services or changing existing habits.

2-UX/UI Design Application Strategy

Applying the Desire Formula to the actual design process, it can be embodied in the following steps.

 ① Discovery of deficiency (∅):pane point definition

• The user melds the answer to "Why should I use this service?" into the design.

• UI application: deployment of hero images or phrases that allow users to intuitively recognize deficiencies

• Apply UX: Design the fastest path to troubleshooting

② Maximizing Value (∑): reward scheme design

• Visually highlights the benefits a user gains from completing a particular action.

• UI application: Provides visual feedback such as success message, badge assignment, mileage accruals, etc

• UX Application: Introduce gamification elements to drive continuous immersion  

③ Minimize resistance (1 - ∂)): usability improvement

• The total desire (M) increases by reducing the 'resistance', which corresponds to the denominator of the formula.

• UI Application: Simplifies complex forms and optimizes click range to eliminate physical resistance

• UX Application: Apply Progressive Disclosure Principles to Don't Give Too Much Information Early

 

■ Louis Choi's Desire Dynamics Scenario Methodology 

This scenario, which restructures Gaston Leroux's classical narrative with Louis Choi's desire dynamics formula with a mathematical and mechanical filter, is the culmination of intelligent aesthetics that witness the rupture of "The Real" beyond just theatrical representation. This scenario describes the story of mechanical opera, in which the whole process results in a single formula, from the prelude to the formation of a black hole of desire through the axiomatic definition of space in a total of 120 composition, to the 120th time when the formula disappears.

[Step 1: Set the axiomatic definition of space (the nuclear setting of a void) stage] as a 'field of emptiness' rather than just a physical background.

• Process: Completely remove the general space dominated by the system (Vsys) and place a 'empty space-time' at the center of the stage where only the other's desires can be projected.

• Aesthetic Devices: Using Hum noise, the audience's unconscious faces a mechanical order before finding linguistic meaning.

1. Nucleus of Void: As the dismantling of the system and the geometric pinnacle begin, the stage is castrated one by one with the colorful decorations of the classic opera house. The five layers, stacked vertically according to the direction's intentions, function with only mechanical precision, and a 'nucleus of blank' is placed in the center of the stage that allows no objects to be done. It is a center of geometric unconsciousness that Vsys (systemic constraints) cannot reach, and a mathematical equivalent of an underground hideout where Eric of Le Roux resides. At the center where the audience's visual information is sucked into the black hole, the low-band Hum noise occupies the entire space. This is the mechanical beat that the subject faces with the language of the symbolic world stationary, and becomes the canvas of reversible light for the observer himself to project the other's desire. Here, Mdesire's value starts at zero initial value, and begins to fluctuate whenever the difference between Vsys and Vact occurs.

2. Collision of Variables: Differentiation and Coordinate Movement Kristen's voice is the only wave in the systemic order (Vsys) that represents Vact's pure outburst. As soon as she starts singing, the variables of the formula that were stationary accumulate along the passage of time called dt. Eric moves his coordinates (x,y) finely in the darkness behind the stage, transforming the layers of space. At this time, sum Delta (x,y) is not just a movement, but an act that the character's unconsciousness resets the physical coordinates of space. Eric's hideout continues to contract and expand according to Christine's pitch change, and the intelligent AI organism, a stage device, collects this data in real time to rebuild the real wall. This is a modern interpretation of how the ghost in Le Rouge's novel dominated the world with a panoptic gaze, visualized by moving mathematical coordinates. In each episode, the audience witnesses how Eric's internal tension increases Mdesire's level with the accumulation of dt, and how the system collapses in the process.

3. Auditory bursts: Return of repressed signs Entering the middle (40th to 80th sessions) of the formula, the gap between Vsys and individual desires (Vact) reaches its limit. Repressed signs flow out along the sound texture (I), and a certain hum noise is converted into a high-frequency, sharp burst (Dsound). In Louis Choi's desire dynamics, this means the "final return of the suppressed." Stage layers cause a geometric collapse at the point where Eric's solitude and Christine's fear intersect, and the separation of the ego staring at me in the mirror is embodied as a physical transition on stage. The moment Christine's movements (Delta x, Delta y) awaken the underground machinery, Eric defines himself as an "opera robot" and replaces his existence with a mathematical equation. Eric's line, "My desire is not to follow the system, but the equation itself that amplifies dt in real time in response to each of your notes," runs through the philosophical core of this scenario.

4. The big hitter's eyes and real stage: When entering the final stage after the 100th episode, the wheel of time no longer distinguishes between the past and the present, and expands dt infinitely. The Stage reaches the peak of Panopticon, which is judged by the Big Hitter, and the system goes through a cycle of complete dismantling and rebuilding. In the last 120th episode, Louis Choi's Desire Dynamics formula converges to zero. At this point where V_act and Vsys coincide or completely extinguish, there is no more Desire Equation. The stage-centered void completely swallows the audience's gaze, leaving only the aesthetics of pure "The Real," whose linguistic meaning has been strengthened. Gaston Leroux's tragic ghost is now not a stuffed past, but a trajectory of pure aesthetics that is created and extinguished in real time in a mechanical device called an opera. At the end of the play, the audience experiences catharsis in which numerous symbols he projected are sucked into the black hole in a space where the structure of desire is stationary, and faces the process of liberating the classical narrative from the peak of mechanical aesthetics.
