Cardin Chung is an LA-based artist whose work interweaves creative technology, dance, music, and visual art. Guided in his dance journey by Corina Kinnear, Cardin trained under NW Dance Project, and then studied under Franco Nieto at Open Space Dance. As a musician, Cardin studied classical piano under Karla Dudley and stepped into jazz music thanks to tap dancing in his youth. Now he’s a fourth-year student at the University of Southern California, pursuing a BFA in dance with minors in jazz piano and web development. Throughout his dance journey so far, he’s had the privilege of performing works by FLOCK, Ihsan Rustem, Roderick George, Bret Easterling, Layla Amis, Victor Rottier, and Lauren Edson.

Beyond the studio, video games played a defining role in his childhood, sparking an obsessive affinity for immersive experiences, unconventional story-telling, and creative coding. This foundation fuels his work—spanning wearable tech to interactive installations and performances—where he fuses movement, music, and technology to create experiences that couldn’t be told in any other way. He strives to build technology that de-centers technology, reawakening a sense of tactility and self-awareness.
