Creator

Jonghoon Ahn is a filmmaker and media artist based in Los Angeles and South Korea, exploring the intersection of reality and virtuality through interactive new media. As a director, he produces experimental films that challenge conventional cinematic language, often blending live action with 3D animation and data-driven storytelling. His work engages audiences through motion recognition and participation, transforming their actions into immersive experiences. Through generative art and data visualization, he reinterprets dominant narratives and explores themes of technology, identity, and social inequality. Rooted in the idea that "technology is a moment," he critiques the societal impact of narcissism and envisions healing through the fusion of technology, cinema, and art. Andrei Tarkovsky's "Film is the Sculpting of Time" quote made him realize that cinematographys are time art. But he wants to show that Films can be the art of space as well as time.
