Performance Introduction
Organotpia
Organotpia reflects a world in which nature and humans are becoming intertwined in the present time and space - a world where fixed temporality has vanished. Light and sound leave traces of time and depict a landscape of endless paradigms coexisting with multiple and simultaneous viewpoints: humans within cities and nature; immateriality, virtuality and reality; the ‘time-space’ continuum; and the interior and the exterior. oOps.50656 generates point clouds using data from the Cultural Heritage Administration of Korea, as well as images of landscapes and forests captured by the artists. They create soundscapes by sampling sounds recorded in nature as well as sounds produced through modular synthesizers using granular synthesis.


XTRUX
