Amid the accelerating iteration of the global digital wave and the in-depth advancement of the Digital China strategy, the deep integration of culture and technology has undoubtedly become a core pathway to enhancing national cultural soft power. As a cultural hub in the Chengdu-Chongqing economic circle, the cultural dialogue between Chongqing and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area represents not only a strategic demand for regional coordinated development but also a key practice for exploring artistic innovation in the era of intelligence and digitalization.

Looking back at the history of art development, the dialectical relationship between technology and art has consistently driven the evolution of artistic forms, continuously propelling paradigm shifts in artistic language. Under the dual impetus of the digital revolution and the iterative development of generative artificial intelligence technologies, art creation is undergoing profound ontological transformations: technology has transcended its role as a mere tool to become a key force reshaping the essence of art. From the visual matrix constructed by digital pixels to the aesthetic landscapes generated by AI algorithms, artistic creation has broken through the barriers of traditional materiality, entering a flowing "post-organic" space built by data encoding. This space features the decentralization of creative subjects, the non-linearization of narrative structures, and the multimedia characteristics of communication mediums.
