lololol

The collective lololol is boundless laughter, an endless extension of lol (laugh out loud), an acronym that appears to be constructed by the building blocks of the I Ching and/or computer code. Founded by Xia Lin and Sheryl Cheung in 2013, the artist collective focuses on how emotions and body politics are informed by diverse technology cultures, with special interests in martial arts, materialist ontologies, and Taoist-informed philosophies. Future Tao is the group’s ongoing initiative to engage with Taoist mind and body practices as an alternative approach to technological exploration. The collective’s works, performances, and collaborative projects have been shown at Berwick Film and Media Arts Festival in the UK, Taipei Arts Festival, Times Museum in China, Vernacular Institute in Mexico, Flaneur Festival in Denmark, Liquid Architecture in Australia, and Contemporary at Blue Star in the United States, among others.Last Updated: 2025.08
