Cambrian explosion
The increasing use of digital technologies and the gigantic amounts of data collected in the process sparked my artistic interest in the question of how we can reclaim these technologies and use them in the artistic disciplines.
The starting point for digital and analog processes was the cellular automaton, which was introduced around 1940 as a universal computational model and was considered the essential basis for artificial life.
In this video, I used some footage from my smartphone and combined it with a Game of life interface algorithm pattern based on the cellular automaton. On the one hand the situation of a romanticized real nature and on the other hand a digital development of artificial life contrasts and connects both worlds clearly showing the dependence.
