Collective Harmonies

Collective Harmonies

This project has received an ACTS grant (Art, Science, Technology, and Society), has been exhibited during the Immaterial Festival 2024 and has been developed with production assistance from Tabakalera.

Collective Harmonies focuses on generating a collective sound experience through touch. It uses interactive technology as a means of communication between humans and machines and recognizes its ability to generate experiences. Based on this philosophical premise, this project questions the relationship between human and non-human entities, as well as the boundaries of bodies and space in participatory performances.
Can we open new relationships between the artwork and the viewer in an environment linked to experience through technology?

Where does the body begin and end? Can we imagine alternative performance environments where we interact with non-human entities?
The installation focuses on evolving performative scenarios, capturing human movement data in real-time. It explores the symbiotic relationship between humans and machines, generating a complex dialogue. Ultimately, it presents a vision of a new dimension or the possibility of rethinking the world in a different way.
