This work is an audio-visual artwork that is created through the development of creating algorithms and other experimental practices to generate sound and visuals.
Traditionally, audio-visual works separate the two aspects of audio and visual, by analyzing the sound to create the visuals or to analyze the visuals to create sound.
Data is created as a base to synchronize and harmonize the relationship with sound and visuals before this project so as to create an abstract output that holds no story and call upon different senses that the medium itself holds. Through the data creation process, simple algorithms from familiar physics phenomenons to deep learning algorithms such as VAE (variational autoencoder) are used.
The installation projects live performance video to a dome screen that otherwise be projected onto a flat screen.
