10/17(Saturday) Is the era of cross-generational dialogue in Sisalon "going downhill"? Yao Renxi doesn't see it that way

In the process of growing up in every generation, there are model figures of "success", perhaps an entertainer, a scholar, an entrepreneur or a religious figure, but what lies behind "success"? When the swarms follow the mainstream values, how can they recognize their own path?

On October 17th (Saturday) at 2:00 p.m., the Longyingtai Cultural Foundation invited architect Yao Renxi to share his philosophical thinking on the topic of "Facing Oneself in the Midnight": What collective consciousness exists in society? How do these collective consciousnesses affect our perception of the times? As an architect who has won numerous awards, how do you view the era that many people think is "going downhill"? The lecture was hosted by Peng Yurong, curator of the 2020 Shennong Project Achievement Exhibition.

Yao Renxi is good at integrating humanistic and historical perspectives into architectural space design, presenting unique local culture and field spirit. In various architectural works, he reflects the mellow connotation that has been profoundly tempered; Food safety and agricultural issues, and then returned to Hualien to establish an online agricultural product channel. He has both media experience and entrepreneurial background. What kind of thinking and collision will be stimulated by hosting Yao Renxi's talk?
