In The Three-body Problem series1, the people at the Battle Command Center launched the project “Operation Guzheng” “string the nanomaterial right across the narrowest point of the canal, at the Gaillard Cut” (Link). They wanted to cut a warship into 12 pieces with nanomaterial strings, to kill Evan and his supporters, as well as destroy the machine that stored the messages from Three-body aliens. In series3, the solar system is struck by the dimensionality reduction blow, which reduces the three-dimensional substances into 2D (Link). I was so shocked by the two scenes when I first read the book. And my project simulates the motion of “cut” and “dimensional reduction”. The aesthetic is inspired by the code rain in The Matrix.
