Boundaries

Music for a digital video installation by Memo Akten,
for La Biennale di Venezia 2024

Commissioned by the Vanhaerents Art Collection especially for this occasion, "Boundaries" is a digital 9x4 metres animation video with accompanying soundscape, created through the use of generative artificial intelligence and custom code.

Making no a priori distinctions between the things we often perceive as mutually different or incompatible, Boundaries shifts from the molecular to the cosmic and back, elegantly blending visuals that borrow from the everyday and the transcendent, the natural and the virtual, the organic and the inanimate … Adding further layers, its complex meditative soundtrack interweaves various artistic genres and cultural connotations.
