Solar Vibration & Flicker based installations and research

Solar Vibrations Sensipaint* Installation at aqb Open House: ⁽⁽ᵐⁱᶜʳᵒ⁾⁾ 2023

The intention of the installation is to create a unique environment for reception that is surprising, soothing and at the same time transcendental, through deep audiovisual impressions. Visual language used in the collection evokes the phenomenon of the blinking light through breath delicious layers and filmy occurrences, which – through continuously changing light and tones – automatically induce the eye to attend actively, shift out from calm, and stimulate cognition. Details show up and fade away, the viewer becomes observer by means of the active participation of the eyesight – for example, twinkling, amazement, that is, by alternate phases of openness-closeness. This circumstance, the eye’s ‘respiration’ provokes assertive action in the attentiveness to the picture. The goal was to open that active attention and drive the visitors to calm down through stimulate their cognition. The movement of the flickering light was based on the experiments with Dreamachine by Brion Gysin. That was one of my first research field when I began to use EEG systems and began to research meditation in artistic aspects back in 2012. Those are called Mind Machines”, “AVS Machines (Audio Visual Stimulation)”, or “SLED”s (Sound and Light Entrainment Devices).

Paint Mapping genre

At the intersection of digital visual art and classical traditions of painting has emerged a new hybrid genre: paint mapping. Paint mapping is a sub-genre of projection mapping. It creates a new sense of reality that comes into being as the painting meets the light cast upon it. Digital animation reflects the painting’s architecture. In this way, it produces a specially integrated unity of the space, the structural relations, the light (the projected non-figurative animations), and the movement.
The object situated in the tangible space, and virtuality, looming pixels into pigments of the painting through light, are creating a new abstract context for the interpretation of both the painting and the animation. The borderline between physical and virtual presence fades, the painting becomes ‘virtual’ and gets moving, animation, projected on it, assumes a shape of ‘physical’ stimulus. In this new atmosphere and fresh experience, the tradition of visual improvisation revives.

The video is a digital reflection to Éva Köves' painting methods and the continuation of the Solar VIbration installation movement research, called flicker. Visual language used in the video evokes the phenomenon of the blinking light through breath delicious layers and filmy occurrences, which – through continuously changing light and tones – automatically induce the eye to attend actively, shift out from calm, and stimulate cognition. Details show up and fade away, the viewer becomes observer by means of the active participation of the eyesight – for example, twinkling, amazement, that is, by alternate phases of openness-closeness. This circumstance, the eye’s ‘respiration’ provokes assertive action in the attentiveness to the picture.
