morphogenesis
audiovisual experience for virtual reality and full dome
2016

Morphogenesis (from the Greek morphê ‘’shape'' and genesis “creation”; "beginning of the shape") is the biological process that causes an organism to develop its shape. As a fulldome and virtual reality piece inspired by the phenomenon of emergence in self-organized systems, Morphogenesis consists of continuous transformation of fundamental geometrical patterns and uses them as the building blocks of immersive spaces. During the audiovisual journey through different planes of the digital and physical universe, Morphogenesis embodies the systems producing the complexity we encounter in the living world. As the common characteristics of emergence that can perceived universally, the audiovisual experience intends to emphasize the systemic interconnectedness over space and time of all natural dynamics and how these dynamics result to create novelty in micro and macro scales. Exploring the idea of geomorphology, mathematics and understanding the world, it invites the viewer to a poetic world, where space becomes infinity, primal sense of immaterial world is being experienced and process of creation being reevaluated.
