跟着艺术家精心设计的「食谱」，让观者在线上随心调配一首广东鸡尾歌。

跟着艺术家精心设计的「食谱」，让观者在线上随心调配一首广东鸡尾歌；《广东鸡尾歌》是个卡拉OK生成器，根据撷取自120首广东歌的片段，以电脑演算法生成出全新的串烧歌。这件作品以共同的文化回忆为灵感，出于对广东歌的热爱，针对这个流行曲风格进行评论。本作品亦反映音乐制作中愈来愈多使用机器的情况，暗示电脑在未来必只是工具，更有可能成为创作者。

Following the artist's 'special recipe', the viewer can mix a Cantopop cocktail in this online platform.

Following the artist's 'special recipe', the viewer can mix a Cantopop cocktail in this online platform; 'Canto Cocktail' is a karaoke generator that uses computational algorithms to compose new medleys based on excerpts of 120 Cantopop songs. Drawing on shared cultural memories, it offers an affectionate commentary on this popular genre. This work also reflects the increased use of machines for music-making and hints at a future era when computers can be creators rather than just tools.
