Overview
She & the Tea Mountain is a long-term cross-border cultural research, documentary, and digital archive project centered on the women of Jingmai Mountain in Yunnan, China.
Supported by the British Council’s Connections Through Culture programme, the project brings together collaborators across China and the UK to explore how women’s lived experience, tea culture, local knowledge, ecological practices, and cultural memory can be documented, interpreted, and transmitted in the digital age.
Rather than treating cultural heritage as a static object, the project focuses on the people who actively sustain it. The knowledge carried by Jingmai women exists not only in tea cultivation, craft, music, and ecological practice, but also in family relationships, oral memory, labor, language, and long-term relationships with the land.
Digital Archive × AI
Beyond documentary production, the project is developing a digital archive methodology that combines:
Human Interpretation · Structured Data · AI-assisted Workflows
AI-assisted transcription and data processing are used alongside human review to verify names, places, local terminology, contextual meaning, and cultural nuance that automated systems may fail to recognize.
The project therefore operates across four connected layers:
CONTENT → KNOWLEDGE → DATA → TECHNOLOGY
Collaborative Review System
During the research process, the team also designed and developed a custom video-to-text collaborative review system.
The platform brings together:
Video · Transcript · Timecodes · Names · Places · Terminology · Contextual Notes · Revision History
into one shared workspace, allowing researchers and collaborators to review, correct, annotate, and structure interview materials together.
Originally developed for She & the Tea Mountain, the system is also being explored as a new workflow for documentary, oral-history, and cultural archive production.
Central Question
How can technology help preserve culture without removing the human context that gives it meaning?

《她与茶山》是一项跨越中国与英国的长期文化研究、纪录影像与数字档案项目,以云南景迈山女性为核心研究对象。
项目获得英国British Council — Connections Through Culture 支持,由中英两地研究者与合作伙伴共同推进,围绕女性经验、茶文化、地方知识、生态实践与文化记忆,探索这些知识在数字时代如何被记录、理解与持续传递。
项目关注的并不仅仅是“茶”或“非遗”本身,而是那些真正使文化持续发生的人。景迈山女性的知识存在于茶叶种植、手工艺、音乐与生态实践中,也存在于家庭关系、口述记忆、劳动经验、语言以及人与土地长期形成的关系之中。
数字档案 × AI
除了纪录片与田野研究,《她与茶山》也在建立一套结合以下三者的数字档案方法:
人的理解 · 结构化数据 · AI 辅助工作流
项目将 AI 辅助转写与数据处理应用于资料整理,同时保留人工复核,用于核验人名、地名、地方术语、语境信息及机器容易遗漏的文化细节。
整个项目逐渐形成四个相互连接的层次:
内容 → 知识 → 数据 → 技术
自主研发AI协同校对系统
在研究过程中,团队还自主设计并开发了一套视频—文本协同校对系统。
系统将:
影像 · 转写文本 · 时间码 · 人名 · 地名 · 术语 · 语境备注 · 修改记录
整合进同一个协作空间,使研究者与合作成员能够共同完成:
校对 · 修正 · 标注 · 审核 · 结构化整理
这套系统最初为《她与茶山》的资料工作而开发,目前也在进一步探索其在纪录片、口述史与文化档案生产中的应用可能。
核心问题
技术如何帮助我们保存文化,同时不丢失赋予文化意义的人的经验、记忆与语境?

Anjing
Observation Program
Overview / 项目概述
The An Jing Observation Program (AJOP) is a long-term independent art research and fieldwork initiative founded by An Jing in Wuhan in 2015.
The project documents artists and the evolving contemporary art ecology of inland China through studio visits, interviews, photography, video, and independent research. Rather than treating Wuhan simply as a geographic location, AJOP looks at how artistic practices are shaped by local environments, personal histories, mobility, and changing cultural conditions.
At its core, the project asks a simple question: How does where we live shape how we make, think, and understand art?
安静观察计划(AJOP) 是安静于 2015 年在武汉发起的长期独立艺术研究与田野调查项目。
项目通过艺术家工作室访问、访谈、摄影、影像记录与独立研究,持续记录中国内陆地区艺术家的创作实践,以及不断变化的当代艺术生态。
项目并不只把武汉视为一个地理位置,而更关注地方环境、个人经历、流动与社会文化变化如何影响艺术家的创作方式。
项目始终围绕一个核心问题展开:我们所处的地方,如何影响我们创作、思考与理解艺术的方式?

合作创作延伸 :与艺术家陶思琪合作影像项目:LIMIAO10:30
Centered on a specific moment—10:30 AM—the project observes everyday rhythms, domestic space, and the relationship between time, routine, and place.
Blurring documentary observation and poetic narration, the work extends AJOP’s interest in local experience and everyday life as forms of artistic research.
围绕一个具体时间点——上午 10:30——作品通过对日常生活、居住空间与城市节奏的观察,探索时间、惯常行为与地方经验之间的关系。
作品游走于纪实观察与诗性叙事之间,也是 AJOP 将日常与地方经验作为艺术研究素材的一次延伸。
