个体的人与现代文明的冲突无非是逃避、融合或对抗，而朱维彬则怀抱着一种乌托邦式的理想来诊治这种无可逃避的现代病。

大工业支配下的现代生产带来高度的物质文明，创造了现代都市，也创造了一步文化机器，按照标准化的工业生产模式把人型造为千篇一律的文化产品，当人们在尽情消遣文化机器提供的商业化产品的时候，却无可奈何地遗失了自我。

朱维彬认为这是人在“生病”，他想为人驱鬼治病。驱鬼先要请神，请来野神驱城里的新鬼。朱维彬出生于云南，受教于四川，地域文化和民间艺术是他心中的一块净土，当他来到都市之后，他自身就成为两种文明冲突的汇集点。

他在感到一种无名焦虑的时候，却从西南的文化中寻找到了一种内心的平衡。于是，他营造了一个精神世界，在这个世界中有一个躁动的精灵，它在狂舞，在尖叫，想返回到原来就属于它的那个自由自在的心灵的原野。

其实，朱维彬所体验到的是现代人共同的经验，不同之处是他从所经历过的文化中找到了这个舞动的精灵，才使得他先于我们一步走出这个都市文化的围城。

The conflict between individual people and modern civilization is nothing more than escape, integration, or confrontation, while Zhu Weibin embraces a utopian ideal to diagnose and treat this inevitable modern disease. Modern production under the control of large-scale industry has brought in a material civilization with high degrees, created modern metropolis, and also built up a cultural machine that molds people into uniform cultural products by following standardized industrial production procedures. When people are farthest enjoying their commercializing products provided by the cultural machine, they have also lost themselves regrettably. Zhu Weibin believe that people are "sick" and wanted to exorcise ghosts and cure illnesses for them. To drive out ghosts, you should first invite gods. Invite the wild gods to drive away new ghosts in the city. Zhu Weibin was born in Yunnan and educated in Sichuan. It is a piece of pure land in his heart of the regional culture and folk art. When he came to the city, he himself became the convergence point of the conflict between the two civilizations. When he felt a nameless anxiety, he found an inner balance from the southwestern culture. Therefore, he has created a spiritual world, in which there is a restless elf, dancing wildly, screaming loudly, and longing to return to the wilderness of the free mind where he originally belongs to. As a matter of fact, what Zhu Weibin has experienced is the common experience of modern people. The only difference is that he found this dancing spirit from the culture he experienced, which enabled him to get out of the siege of urban culture ahead of us.
