We present electrically-driven generation and dynamics of the real-space optical vortices based on the high-dimensional gradient-thickness optical cavity. The structure consists of a metal-dielectric multi-layer that supports non-trivial topological phases, generating optical vortex lines and rings in three-dimensional generalized parameter space. We experimentally demonstrated the high-dimensional gradient-thickness optical cavity by liquid crystal-based multi-layer structure, which bijectively projects a surface slice of generalized parameter space into the real space. By electric control of the alignment of liquid crystal molecules, we successfully spanned the architecture of the high-dimensional optical singularity in real space, which actively generates and manipulates the optical vortex-antivortex pair.
