Zha Xingyu's "Olympic Image Display Landscape Design Under Computational Thinking" aims to explore different image display techniques for different identities against diverse backgrounds. He diligently applied computational thinking and incorporated the notion of "becoming" by integrating Gilles Deleuze's theory into his design concept. "l think design should not only 'be,' but also be capable of 'becoming,'" he said. AssociateProfessor Chen Luoqi supervised this work.
