Dualities

Art Installation Performance

A/VPerformance

Realtime flow of images and sounds recall a permanent duality

Premiered at the Blooming Festival 2020, this live AV performance, dated 2020, presents an undulating stream of visual and auditory stimuli, meticulously crafted to evoke a persistent dichotomy, a fundamental duality at the heart of quantum mechanics. This artistic exploration traces a path along the crest of a metaphorical wave, a dynamic entity that is simultaneously a corporeal form, tangible and present. The interplay of tangible light, manipulated and projected with precision, and fluid sound, composed and sequenced to create an immersive sonic landscape, culminates in a sensory experience that invites free interpretation and personal reflection.

This live AV performance stands as a meditation on the wave-particle duality, a cornerstone of quantum mechanics, translated into an immersive, artistic language. It seeks to capture the elusive essence of this paradoxical concept, where light and matter exist in a state of simultaneous wave-like propagation and particle-like localization. Through a dynamic synthesis of carefully synchronized sensory elements, the performance aims to bridge the gap between scientific theory and artistic expression, offering audiences a unique opportunity to engage with the abstract concepts of quantum physics through a visceral, experiential lens. The live AV format, with its inherent immediacy and performative nature, amplifies the impact of this exploration, transforming the theoretical into a tangible, shared moment of discovery.
