Hi, I’m Mei (Xuemei Ge).


 

I’m a designer integrating AI into design and artistic practice, with a focus on AI products and interactive experiences. I combine visual design, user research, and AI-assisted development to turn ideas into experiences people can see, feel, and engage with. My work spans digital products, branding, cultural events, and art, exploring how technology can support creativity, inspire thought, and become part of everyday life.

 

​My creative journey began with studying sculpture at Tsinghua University. Working with form, materials, and space shaped my interest in perception and physical experiences. During my undergraduate years, I expanded into visual, spatial, exhibition, and web design, collaborating with different departments and institutions to explore artistic expression across media.
 

After graduating, I moved into film and commercial production, contributing to projects such as the Beijing International Film Festival’s promotional film. From creative concepts and visual development to set design, I applied my background in sculpture and spatial art to physical sets, giving stories tangible form through materials, light, and space. I later took on branding and event design for Zhengyi Ci Theatre and Art Nova 100, extending visual identities across media, spaces, and live experiences. These projects taught me how design connects cultural expression, audience needs, and business goals, and how to bring ideas to life through collaboration and practical production decisions.

Driven by an interest in interaction and emerging media, I completed a master’s degree in New Media at Aalto University in Finland and undertook an exchange at Politecnico di Milano in Italy, expanding my practice into creative computing and generative AI. In my research project Hi, Past-Human, I designed and developed a multimodal AI dialogue experience, using user testing to explore how different approaches to conversation can inspire thought and creativity.

​

Today, I continue to explore AI across art, design, and digital products. For Nouri, a food and meal management product, I independently defined the product and designed its interactions and visual system, using AI-assisted development to build a working prototype. I also use vibe coding to create interactive visuals and experimental artworks, moving between ideas, code, and experience to develop work people can explore and interact with.

​

I look forward to a future where AI enables more people to put their imagination into practice, helping creators work across media and technical barriers to explore forms of expression that were once difficult to realize. With the sensitivity I’ve developed through art, the judgment I’ve gained through design, and my curiosity about technology, I hope to help shape a more imaginative future that is attentive to people and their experiences.
