STORM
Tim Gruchy
Wenzhou Bienalle
Wenzhou 2016
STORM is a standalone immersive
interactive installation designed as a single user experience and
themed around concepts of the human transition forward from it's
current biological form, with attention to some of the processes and
questions that this will throw up.
It
probes, perturbs, resonates and ruminates around the biomorphology and
relentless evolution of humans from our current increasingly redundant
biological form into some imagining future.

STORM : Stochastic
Translator Of Resonant Morphologies : Tim Gruchy
Medical
science examines, dissects, analyses, understands and models the
human body and its systems at continuously higher and higher
resolutions.
At the same time our virtual selves are becoming more and more
sophisticated as we increasingly engage with the digital world, through
pervasive technologies, hyper-communication and social networks that
relentlessly permeate so many aspects of our lives.
At some point in the future there will be a transubstantiation between
these realms. Yet what of the soul?
There is a storm coming.
STORM explores some of
these dynamics in a realtime interactive audio visual installation
whose behaviour is intrinsically non-deterministic (stochastic). Using
these combined mathematical and scientific visual and sonic generation
principles, body sensing generates and moderates a highly resolute and
complex visual display and soundscape.
STORM is a continuation
of my interests and explorations that have manifest in my practice for
decades.
