In addition, to achieve the gesture interactivity of light, sophisticated technical and engineering solutions are required to ensure that the audience can smoothly engage and explore the work.
Project Duration
The project was completed in Nanjing in August 2023.
Operation Flow
The work integrates the gesture interaction of light, and the audience explores the internal laws of the chaotic system in a personal way by changing the brightness and color of the light, which enhances the audience's sense of participation.
Research
This series of works aims to explore the aesthetic and philosophical thinking of chaos through art, while introducing scientific elements to lead the audience to deeper thinking. The design of the work combines abstract concepts and visual presentation of complex systems with interactive elements to provide a way to interact with chaosology concepts, leading to a rich and unique experience for the audience.
Inspiration
The design is inspired by chaos, a scientific field that deals with the seemingly disordered, yet orderly nature. Each work represents a chaotic system and the evolution of these systems is inspired by the theory of chaos. The glass laser inner carving technique was chosen as the creation medium due to its ability to present abstract chaotic concepts in fine forms.
