DOT, a videogame with no winner
Dot, a videogame with no winner' is an audiovisual performance with synchronized sounds and images, played by a 'game console' built and programmed by the artist, and controlled by retro videogame (Nintendo) joysticks. The instrument is completely autonomous and works without the need of a computer, using only a projector and sound system to play its content. The performance has 5 parts, like the levels of a game. People from the audience are invited to play with the artist.
Glitchy Square
Starting from a basic circuit using Arduino, the artist made some circuit bendings, adding some components and testing various ways of connection among them. The result is as audiovisual instrument where audio and image feedback themselves, generating unusual sounds and animations. ‘Glitchy Square’ is an homage to the famous painting ‘Black Square’, by Russian painter Malevich, who tried to reach the limits of (non)representation.
x=x
Using as title a Ludwig Wittgenstein formula, this composition deals with references, meanings and similarities. Is there something that is completely identical to another? How far you can make copies without changing the original? Do the copies themselves change the meaning of the original? Questioning tautological concepts, the performance aims to show in sound and image, this relationship. The work is performed using video-mapping techniques, creating illusions of three-dimensional depth to the viewer.
Aufhebung
Aufhebung is a live generative audiovisual performance. The artist develops, through images and sounds, questions about the philosophical term 'Aufhebung' used by Hegel in his 'Phenomenology of Spirit'. This term, which has dubious meaning even in the original language can be translated as cancellation and maintenance. It is, at the same time, affirmation and negation, being and nonbeing. Hegel uses it to illustrate the process of development of all things, through the triad thesis / antithesis / synthesis.
Memory(e)scapes
The landscapes of memory fade away in time. As the notes are played, blue landscapes are built, according to the intensity of each sound.
Human Nature
This composition deals with the human behaviour on earth. As time passes, the screen gets darker and filled with multiple dots.
