"A Poetic Beach"
Consciousness breeds new thinking/Melancholy beyond emotional calculation is anything but a dream/As loneliness and desolation reverberate throughout the world/in the graveyard of deconstruction/A sheer coldness unbearable by any soul emerges/The trace of a flaming silhouette/Is found on the tombstones of future/A glamorizing paradise in the east/Is the home of a stretch of beach praised in many poems/Which bear witness to the history of abstract thinking.
Dabeiyuzhou is particularly popular among Gen Z because of his cyberpunk style of artworks. Known as an "oriental cyborg", he has a large follower base in China. He started to create the "Text Gene Project" series in 2019. As the originator of text NFT, the "Text Gene Project" is not limited to text, but is the combination of text, image and human voice interpretation. Known as an extremely exquisite and transcendent virtual world, this series is a combination of eastern religious culture and cyberpunk. It explores endless possibilities of human-computer collaboration on digital art and metaverse in the future.
