ENVISION : Step into the sensory box

The Particle v1.0 (by Alex Posada)

“The Particle” is a kinetic sculpture that experiments with color, sound and movement. Around the space occupied by the sculpture defines a surround sound system that reacts and becomes one with the movement and light.

olafur eliasson and ma yansong: feelings are facts

‘space and light bring life into existence. there is no space, unless given light and boundary. space has never existed, but rather exists only in the specific feelings it induces. space in reality, exists only in sensuality. with expanding desire, everything is managed with utmost efficiency. our feelings and sensibilities are seeing facts in the context of habituated life. no until shutting our eyes, can be feel the world from within, space and light will touch your soul.’ - ma yansong

CRYSTAL MESH

The „screen“ facade is formed by a tessellated pattern made up by physical plastic bodies. A regular matrix of fluorescent lamps is superimposed onto (into) this idiosyncratic physical structure. That produces a display screen, which however is vividly distorted by the strong geometry of the individual light fixture and which is peppered by the regular perforations of the physical screen as well as by variations in the arrangements of the light fixture objects.

By intention a complex and ambivalent impression. On one side there is the impression of an ultra large media screen, which is not yet fully there. It appears to be still deep frozen under a surface of ice, cracking and thawing. A herald of a fundamental change of architecture, which is about to transform from a static to a dynamic art.

On the other side the individual blinking crystals carry a strong reminiscence to the look of the “modern city” of the 20th century. The idea of “entertainment” linked to flashing neon signs and excessive baroque carpets of light bulbs with its on-off moving aesthetic.
