藝術雙人組 lololol 由藝術家張欣、林亭君於2013年共同發起，作品關注科技對於當代生活的感知影響，透過混合媒體、錄像、工作坊及擴延電影跨域表演，探問身體哲學和人類與機器的認知程序和進程。2020年兩人共同創立了「未來道」非營利藝術團體，旨在進行更多集體合作與多元領域的創作。長期項目「Future Tao」以實驗性的藝術實踐重新思考亞洲哲學、身心技術觀念與醫學身體系統的詮釋。
作品計畫曾於英國貝里克電影與媒體藝術節、臺北藝術節、廣東時代美術館、國⽴台灣美術館、MoCA台北當代藝術館、墨西哥黑話機構、柏林漫遊者藝術節、澳洲液態聲音藝術節、美國藍星當代藝術中心、布洛克美術館展演發表。
lololol is a boundless laughter, an endless extension of lol (laugh out loud), an acronym that appears to be constructed by the building blocks of I-Ching and/or computer code. Founded by Xia Lin and Sheryl Cheung in 2013, the artist duo focuses on how emotions and body politics are informed by diverse technology cultures, with special interest in martial arts, materialist ontologies and perceptual impacts of technology on contemporary life, examining body philosophy, and the cognitive processes and progressions between humans and machines. This has led to a unique interpretation of Asian philosophy, mind-body practices as an alternative approach to technological exploration. In 2020, lololol initiated non-profit art group "Future Tao" which aims to facilitate collective collaborations and expanded cinema performances.
lololol's work, performances and collaborative projects have been shown at Berwick Film and Media Arts Festival (UK), Taipei Arts Festival (TW), Times Museum (CN), Vernacular Institute (MX), Flaneur Festival (DE), Liquid Architecture (ASTL) and Contemporary at Blue Star (USA) amongst others.
