Profile

Born in 1971 Graduated from Beijing Normal University in 1994.
8GG is a Newmedia duo in Beijing composed of Fu Yu and Jia Haiqing . Our works include music, video, installation, drama, and web art. We successfully developed our own real-time performing audio-visual system in 2002, which integrates sounds and images featuring a more musical nature and physical control. We had conducted many audio-visual shows in a large number of events in various cities around the word.
