Bears Are Ninety Percent B is built around broken signals, failed
loading, repeated B-sounds, and voices struggling to remain audible.
Across digital ruins, an abandoned voice searches for another bear—for a voice that was never online. Systems crash. Language buffers. Translation remains offline, yet the signal continues.
"Bear" is not a theory. It is an invented figure of intimacy: something made together because being human, and learning human language, hurts too much.
The work stays with that failed connection. Repetition becomes less a conclusion than a child calling its own name into a mirror, trying to make fiction hold.

《熊的百分之九十是B》围绕破碎的信号、加载失败、反复出现的B音，以及挣扎着维持可听性的声音而展开。
在数字废墟之中，一个被遗弃的声音寻找着另一只熊——寻找一个从未上线的声音。系统崩溃。语言缓冲。翻译仍处于离线状态，信号却未曾中断。
"熊"并非一种理论。它是一个被发明出来的亲密形象：因为做人、学习人类的语言，实在太过痛苦，于是共同造出了它。
作品驻留于那场失败的连接之中。重复在此并非结论，而更像一个孩子对着镜子呼唤自己的名字，试图让虚构成为真实。
