For our semester project, we were assigned the challenge of creating a media installation centered around the concept of invasive species or neobiota. In our project, we deliberately opted to focus on human beings as the subject matter instead of animals. This choice was motivated by the recognition that humans represent the quintessential invasive species.

The "Four Pest Campaign," initiated during Mao Zedong's leadership in China, offered a compelling historical example that resonated with our project's theme. This campaign was named after the four perceived pests: sparrows, rats, flies, and mosquitoes, and it serves as a poignant illustration of how human intervention can significantly impact ecosystems.
