OS1
A voice agent modeled on the operating system in Her, exploring new ways for people and AI to work together. Its first app recreates the film’s iconic letter-writing app, my favorite.
Dehong Hao
I’m curious about people: how we come to know ourselves, and how we see one another.
Three words describe my life right now: exploration, connection, and creation.
Exploration led to this trip, and to If You Were There. Connection is why I stay with friends, build things with them, and build telephones. Creation is not only for art; it is for any idea I have: OS1, Hao Lab, and more.

The Telephone
Three old telephones, rebuilt to listen, remember, and connect.
Hao Lab
A studio that began in a former classroom near Liangzhu, Hangzhou. The system now centers on a portable Mac hub.

Explore the cities I’ve passed through over the last three years, and add a memory if you were there with me.
