There’s a term from Deleuze called Body without organs —- is not an empty body stripped of organs, but a body upon which that which serves as organs is distributed according to crowd phenomena, in Brownian motion, in the form of molecular multiplicities.

Due to the prevalence of consumerism, Good families are being standardized. In fact, even though people perform similar behaviors at home, because individuals are different, the starting points of these behaviors are diverse, so families are also diverse.

Windows of a house are similar to windows of the mall, both being a form of "display". Inside windows without curtains, there is an arrangement, almost performative, internal scene presentation. These scenes during the day are one-sided and fixed; while in the night scenes, the curtains are pulled up, but the changing lights transform it into a continuous fragment.

The "home without organs" derived from "body without organs" transforms the subject into the home, and the organs are the people in the home, living supplies, furniture, etc.; choosing to place the process of using these objects with the hands into the originally fixed windows, to re-attribute the vitality that is constantly generated due to the continuous interaction between these objects and people, making the home unique.

由于消费主义的盛行,美好家庭在被模板化。事实上,即使人们在家中做着相似的行为, 但由于个体不同,这些行为的出发点是有多样性的,因此家也是多样的。

窗户与橱窗有着相似性,都是一种“展示”;在没有拉上窗帘的窗户中是有着排列性,近乎表演性质的内部场景呈现。白天的这些场景是片面、定格的;而夜晚的场景中,窗帘被拉上,但透出的灯光变换将其变成延续的片段。

根据“body without organs”延伸出来的“home without organs”将描述主体变为家,而器官就是家中的人,生活用品,家具等;选择将双手使用这些物体的过程放入本来定格的窗户中,去重赋正因为这些物体与人之间的不断相互作用而产生的生命力,使家具有独特性。
