Described:

The "generator" is a continuous art project, which discusses the paradox between the  unknown of brain projecting and the certainty. "Betting" was followed by the decision and growth. As Chinese old proverb says,"Face comes from heart", the beginning of a seemingly logical event is the projecting of heart .The reconstruction of landscape , the imagination and working of capital profit driven model originated in a certain expectations . The combination of expectation and satisfaction is addiction .

"Addiction" is controlled by the human brain neural circuit which let us cherish feeling good things. Originally, the circuit is used to maintain the survival and substances of reproductive activities .The success of each circuit makes people have the desire to engage in the activities once again. The neurotransmitter dopamine directly connected with the circuit and led people to expect rewards. In order to meet frequently expectation to rewards which beyond survival and reproductive activities , alcohol, tobacco, drugs (substances and spirits) have been produced. The brain reward system is stimulate by "addiction" and turn to rely on "addiction" . The pleasure of "projecting" is expectation to the unknown reward. It is exactly unpredictable and arrive at any time that amplified pleasure of human intellectual activity ,such as summoning supernatural power.
