Sound Meridians
An online curatorial project launched in 2019, researching sound cultures across Asia through field recordings, video, and historical documents to reveal how sound travels across geographic, linguistic, and political boundaries. Beginning with Taiwan, the Philippines, Singapore, and Malaysia, the project continues to expand to other countries across Asia.

Soundtraces
An archive of Taiwan's modern sound culture, tracing its history from the 1910s to the present through a timeline that spans the music industry, underground music, sound art, and the evolution of performance spaces. The project takes "reverberation" and "noise" as epistemological models, examining the cultural characteristics and social transformations of successive eras — from Japanese colonial rule and martial law through post-martial law opening to globalisation.

International Conference of the Curators’ Intensive Taipei 24
An international forum series centred on contemporary curatorial discourse, bringing together curators from around the world to explore curating as a method of knowledge production and cultural critique. Taking the pressing questions of the post-globalisation era as its axis, the forum deepens local curatorial education while building a cross-regional field for critical dialogue.

"Through The Last CD, Lee brings hundreds of album covers back to life through rigorous hand-painting. From content and medium to packaging and display, he completely deconstructs and refashions the materiality of pop culture. In doing so, he guides the audience to rethink the profound relationships between the idol industry, modern consumerism, and the intrinsic value of media."
