Guan has collaged together numerous short found video clips, all covering the broad spectrum of her interests, including from YouTube, television and DVDs, along with more narrated video sequences the artist has produced herself. She is also present in the video, performing as herself, describing, in somewhat abstract terms, how she has developed her own world-view through filtering the over-exposure to images and information, and then articulating it as artworks. Accompanied by an ambient soundtrack, also produced by the artist, it displays a calm maturity towards the rapidly changing conditions of life and work.

Xiao heeft talrijke korte gevonden videoclips, die alle op een of andere manier refereren naar haar brede waaier aan interesses, waaronder clips van YouTube, televisie en dvd\u0026#39;s, alsook meer verhalende video-sequenties die de kunstenaar zelf heeft geproduceerd, samengebracht. Ze is zelf ook aanwezig in de video, als zichzelf, en beschrijft, in enigszins abstracte termen, hoe ze haar eigen kijk op de wereld heeft ontwikkeld door middel van het filteren van de onophoudelijke stroom van beelden en informatie, waarna ze dit proces vertaalt in kunstwerken. De beelden worden begeleid door een door de kunstenaar geproduceerde ambient soundtrack; het werk toont een kalme mature houding ten opzichte van de snel veranderende omstandigheden van leven en werk.
