The idea behind the installation is to reimagine the CICLIC live AV concept as a light sculpture, emphasizing in a distinctive manner how simple waves modulate our perception of our surroundings, altering both the tangible and intangible. The concept explores how the interaction of simple frequencies can become complex behaviors, and their ability to transform the space around them.

Past and Future Luminous Earth Grid, 1993 © Stuart Williams

luminous earth grid’, the massive-scale personal project of american designer stuart williams, prefigured both technically and conceptually the extent to which modern technology would blend into our daily life. created in 1993, ‘luminous earth grid’ was conceived as a conversation between technology and nature at a time when most people had never yet accessed the internet. although the precision of the grid across ten acres of undulating landscape make the project easy to mistake from aerial views for a projection, the work is based completely from the ground. a temporary extension cable, strung down the mountainside and connected to nearby power lines, provided the electricity for 1680 fluorescent lamps, connected with 12 miles of electrical wiring. designboom

Swarm 1944 prepared dc-motors, mdf panels 72x72 cm, metal discs Ø 8 cm, 2020 © Zimoun 1944 small motors put the same number of thin metal discs into rotating movements. These movements produce sounds as well as strong visual characteristics and structures. The sounds are created by the friction of the metal discs on their base. Each metal disc rotates in its own individual cycle and rhythm. This results in complex visual and acoustic overlays and cyclical shifts. The resulting noise and visual effects are very lively and in constant change in their microstructures, reminding some of us of phenomena from nature. 🪡⚫️
