Avidity

Ricardo Nemeye van Wijk

2019

Over the last decade there has been a significant growth into the desire to continually be connected through digital space. A social connection made through artificial intelligent systems is transforming and adapting physical language into visual understanding. A staged performance of this visual language is being shown to shift the perspective back towards our understanding of reality.

Avidity is an interactive modern artwork, highlighting the consequences of the Internet of Things “IoT” systems on our daily life. The sequence of light-chairs are symbolising animistic behaviour, creating a new visual conversation where the human is being projected out of consideration. The conversation between the animistic objects are not based on the structures of a human like language, but a visual language out of an algorithmic language, resulting in a continue adaptive environmental experience
