STATE / Phase II

The project supports its representational postulates using the pure, absolute, perfect and invariable form of the images to represent the concept of order. The use of red, as a constant element among the works, is linked to the direct relationship of this color with the effervescence and symbolism of revolutions. 

Based on the mobility / perceptibility of movement the project present two spatial-sensory criteria: the state of the form and the state of the viewer with respect to the image. 

The state of form is autonomous, it functions for itself, incomparable and total; inscribed in the computer from a virtualization process that denies the comparative parameters that structure movement in digital animation. The result of this process is a video in which it is impossible to distinguish the movement to which the shape is subjected. 

This last aspect brings us to the second criterion mentioned, the state of the viewer with respect to the image. 

If the illusion that makes us understand and perceive the movement disappears, how to react to the apparent statism. It is the way of perceiving what makes us assume a position in front of the real state of the image. By perceiving movement, we can understand, analyze and question the ideal or remain content and obedient to the unchanging. 

Perception is conditioned by the sound accompaniment incorporated in each of the project’s works. These audio bands are worked from the sound interpretation of a red plane made through the Pipe 1.0 experimental program put online on 04/15/2011. Created by Ossain Raggi and Kevin Beovides, this program transcodes the image into sound, producing audio tracks that correspond to the amount of data that makes up the image. In this case, since RED is a value that is repeated, the program produces a constant audio pattern that accentuates the intrusive and disconcerting nature of the works in space.
