We're 95% flowing ready

Vesti bune! We're 95% flowing ready 👏

F L O W: Conceptul se bazeaza pe idea de curgere. FLOW! Don't just Go with the FLOW, Be the FLOW!
Obiectele sunt construite intotdeauna din linie continua, curba, organica. Inspirate de Banda Möbius si simbolistica derivata, aceste obiecte au o interpretare fluida: sculpturi, mobiler urban, rampa sport urban.
Parte integranta a seriei de experimente Internetul Lucrurilor Vii, Internetul Skaterilor este initiat si dezvoltat de cercetator stiintific Marian Zamfirescu (head of CETAL - Center for Advanced Laser Technologies), alaturi de studenti din cadrul Universitatii Politehnica Bucuresti - Facultatea de Stiinte Aplicate si studenti de la Universitatea Bucuresti - Facultatea de Fizica de la Măgurele, artisti.
Senzori. Directii de miscare. Vibratii. Informatii digitale ce poartă cu ele emoțiile și trăirile, caderile și victoriile skaterilor, transpuse de artisti în imagini și sunete.

Inauguram canalul YouTube Synapse cu un teaser al primei Synapse Talks. Revenim curand cu filmarea discutiei inspirationale dintre invitatii nostri. Vizionare placuta!
https://youtu.be/hsH4ARNfKN0

Conceput ca o incursiune in spatiul conturat de lucrarile Eugen Rosca, Poeziile lui Paul Celan, Gherasim Luca și Charles Baudelaire, Timpul lui Bernhard Moestl si Odiseea Cuantica a lui Laurentiu Nita, evenimentul “Redeeming The Time”, a marcat debutul Synapse Your Future Talks (in 22 iunie). O calatorie a cunoasterii prin arta, stiinta, viata!

„Cum explici conceptul timpului unui om surd? Cum ai desena „timpul“? Se poate? Este timp ceva real sau ceva imaginat? Cine ne stapaneste timpul si de ce acceptam ca sunt ceilalti? Care este valoarea timpulului? Daca ai uita in ce an te-ai nascut, ai sti cati ani ai? De ce depinde cat de repede trece timpul? Cand facem ceva plictisitor timpul trece mai incet, asta inseamnand pe de alta parte ca avem senzatia ca am trait mai mult. Ce ti se pare preferabil? De ce este important sa masuram timpul? Exista o eternitate? Daca nu, ce vine dupa?” Bernhard Moestl

Eugen Rosca | Tranzit Solo Show

"O atmosfera in care timpul este inghețat, unde nemiscarea este urmatorul pas important de facut, specifica religiilor spatiului estic, ale carui simboluri sunt adesea folosite de catre artist. Colate compozitional cu experiente biografice reale, episoade obiective, imagini ale culturii de masa sau referinte deopotriva ale artei moderne ori a celei medievale, cu precadere gotice, Eugen realizeaza intai un desen digital (o randare) pe care il urmareste apoi cu strictete canonica in redarea pixel cu pixel in mediul picturii."

"Projectile fragments, archived and conserved, keep the memory of war intact. A cold, long and unstoppable war. An acid, chemical rain on the background abandoned in warm greys, printed in latent remorse. Anxiety was born urban: being and lack of being. The anthropomorphous and zoomorphic mélange, like razor-sharp cuts, slide surgically towards nowhere, on an ice slide with no beginning and no ending. A never-ending loop. What is ahead, the end? Or is there hope in washing away the evil? With how much caustic soda and in how many waters should the washing be made? How do you save yourself?"

”Keep You Alive” - an art project, a hybrid physical and digital experience produced by Halucinarium Art On for Unilever South-East Europe (January 2020).

You've come to the time when you have to admit that your concept of reality is continuously changing. You are connected, but somehow you reached the maximum loneliness level, you are accessing new territories and subjects, but somehow you feel everything is superficial, you reached the highest level of knowledge, but somehow you feel you know nothing at all. You often ask yourself if on the way you lost something in the tumultuous path through a life guided by ever-increasing technology. Has being human in such a reality became the hardest part?

Don't be scared about the future and evolvement, don't loose yourself in the process, connect and reconnect with you with and without technology, access your own reality and be present and active in the collective reality, adapt, adjust, express yourself, live your emotions and do good for you, for others and last but not least for the planet.

SAINT MACHINE | I, Human
A visionary project, a metaphor for our evolution as a species, which may depend on our capacity to empathize.

I, HUMAN is on display at Halucinarium as part of INSATIABLE MACHINES, a SAINT MACHINE solo show curated by Carmen Casiuc. Hopefully you will enjoy this fantastic exhibition after the lock down. Until then, enjoy the movie created by SAINT MACHINE and Black Horse Mansion.

Developed around the idea of interconnectivity, it analyzes how individual interactions can produce collective outcomes at different scales, testing new models of synergistic behaviour mediated by technology and identifying coherence patterns.

A circuit of interconnected masks howling like wolves are asking to be fed with emotions. Once superimposed on the human body, they analyze the emotional state of each user, as well as the emotional cohesion of the group. Each mask offers different soundscapes, inducing antagonistic psychological states. Users need to override their personal context in order to emotionally synchronize. The masks are connected to a biophotonics experiment in the bunker of the Center for Advanced Laser Technologies in Bucharest. The degree of emotional cohesion of the users connected to the installation controls the frequency and intensity with which the laser feeds a euglena population. While functioning as living experimental subjects, the users are also real-time observers of the experiment.

SACRED EGG is an interactive installation that swallows your head and feeds on your energy to stay alive. After connecting your head to the egg or***ce, you can determine the actions of the artwork and become part of it. The tubular embryo inside starts to breathe and keeps breathing as long as you stay connected. The moment you take your head out of the egg, it reacts violently, screaming, throwing triangles and eventually dying. Sacred Egg points to the continuous present in the making, it is about potentiality, perpetually repetitive but insufficient physicality, continuous death and revival. While offering the illusion of control, it steals your senses, absorbing your attention. Looking from behind, all there is left of you is a beheaded hanging body, voided of individual will and responding only to the feeding needs of an insatiable hybrid egg.. SACRED EGG is part of INSATIABLE MACHINES | Body responsive installations feeding on humans, a solo show by SAINT MACHINE, curated by Carmen Casiuc.

I, HUMAN is a body installation of physical sculptures with a virtual core using human empathy as content to influence the feeding conditions of microorganisms, and electric light as content carrier. Developed around the idea of interconnectivity, it analyzes how individual interactions can produce collective outcomes at different scales, testing new models of synergistic behaviour mediated by technology and identifying coherence patterns. It is a metaphor for our evolution as a species, which may depend on our capacity to empathize.
