A deep-space dialogue with physicist has warped into a full cosmic alignment!!!🪐I’ll be performing my Welcome to the Portal set at 2025 finale—a psychonautic journey into the fabric of spacetime—followed by Dr. Christina Markert’s research and her own scientific journey: “Recreating the ‘Little Bang’ in the Lab.” Come experience the Portal and immerse yourself in the cosmic - where sound, science and spacetime meet🤩🤯
Program Briefing
Physics on the Rocks 2025 — Finale Program
7:00 PM — Welcome to the Portal (Live Set by Mingfei Xie)🌌💫☄️
An interstellar experimental music performance exploring sonic analogs of spacetime curvature, cosmic dawn frequencies, and the luminous turbulence of early-universe formation.
7:30 PM — Recreating the Little Bang in the Lab (Talk by Dr. Christina Markert)🌀
Dr. Markert guides audiences through the physics of tiny, high-energy collisions that mirror conditions microseconds after the Big Bang—revealing how quark–gluon plasmas, particle jets, and “mini-universes” are generated inside modern accelerators.
8:00 PM — Second Talk (TBD)
8:30 PM & After — Cosmic Q&A + Social Orbit
An open discussion where audiences can drift between music, physics, and the shared curiosity that binds both worlds.🕳️

Last week I first met with Mesmerize’s founder Mateo and hearing him sharing the vision of Mesmerize, I knew our visions and portals are aligned: creating experiences for people to see the magic around them, unleash their imagination and potential to free and empower themselves, and they can finally see it’s not the magic but themselves. So when Mateo mentioned they were looking for new sounds I knew my music and Welcome to the Portal would fit perfectly. And in less than a week, Welcome to the Portal came to life at Mesmerize thanks to the staff’s hard work.
Since I started sharing my music and performing publicly, many people have “portal-ed” through my music, but it doesn’t do the magic for me. This time experiencing my own creation in an immersive interactive installation setting, I get to not only listen to it, but visualize it, walk in it and touch it. This experience has evoked new feelings and senses for me, I’ve portal-ed!
Huge shoutout to and looking forward to making more magic together!🤩💫☄️🌈🌊🌌🛸🪐🌪️💥🪼🧚🏻♀️👻

This spring I took avant-garde & experimental filmmaking class with and my film “Change Is The Only Constant” will be premiering at tomorrow afternoon with other students’ work.
Shout out to our amazing instructor and for mixing & mastering my music🤩🥳
