Nonotak
Zero point two V.2
light installation
BIO
Nonotak is the collaboration between the illustrator Noemi Schipfer and the architect musician Takami Nakamoto. Commissioned by the Architect Bigoni-Mortemard to create a mural in the lobby of a public housing building in Paris, NONOTAK was created in late 2011.
In early 2013, they start to work on light and sound installations, creating an ethereal, immersive and dreamlike environment meant to envelope the viewer, capitalizing on Takami Nakamoto's approach of space & sound, and Noemi Schipfer's experience in kinetic visual. They presented their first audiovisual installation at the Mapping Festival in may 2013. In summer 2013, NONOTAK come up with a performance, LATE SPECULATION, where they are the creators and contents of the project.
NONOTAK have been commissioned by the Mapping Festival (Geneva), EM15 ELEKTRA / MUTEK (Montréal), la Nuit Blanche (Paris), Roppongi Art night (Tokyo), Axcess Art Gallery (New York), Stereolux (Nantes), Playgrounds Festival (Tilburg), Mirage Festival (Lyon), Vision'R, Insanitus Festival (Lithuania), FUZ Festival (Paris), Lunchmeat Festival (Praga), KIKK Festival (Belgium), Nokia by Lumia (Istanbul). Their works have been exhibited at institutions and galleries including Tokyo Grant Hyatt Hotel, l'Opéra de Lyon, Batiment d'Art Contemporain de Genève, Theater de NWE Vorst, La Fabrique, Pavillon Carré de Baudouin, Le Générateur.

ZERO POINT TWO V.2 is a light installation part of our fiber optics-based sculpture series.
It is composed of very thin lines spaced in a grid-shaped environment.
Every single line of light is individually acting as an independent source in order to sync with the sound narrative. Being isolated in a black box, the installation constitutes a whole new dimension of landmark and perspective for the audience, allowing the installation to play with the visitor's visual and spatial perception.

WORK
Holywell is a multi-sensory experience that explores the nature and mathematical principles of sacred geometry. The work consists of the development of algorithms to create many forms observed in nature and
their relation to religious patterns. The use of digital technology offers the possibility of reproducing various combinations making graphics evolve in the form of controlled randomness that creates complex patterns that fully embrace the architecture of the church.
The interactive will give a sense of direct contact with the divine of the church as their movement will modify the visual content projected on the ceiling and the floor and will change the perspective of the environment. As dome projection, the light projected on the cupula of the church will play with its architecture and change the perception of it.
The sound of the installation will follow the theory of Pythagoras that explained that patterns in nature are like the harmonies of music as arising from numbers.

WORK
White pieces of thread are woven in a three-dimensional, polygonal form. This form functions as a 3D screen, onto which thin lines of lights are irradiated via a projector. These linear lights repeatedly appear from the ground, then ascend and disappear. In addition, the particles of light manifest themselves at the intersections between the threads and the linear lights. Even though the linear lights ascend at a constant speed, the light particles appear as if they are all moving at different speeds. These differences occur depending on the distances of the threads from the light source and the angles of the woven threads. That is, the closer the thread is to a perfect horizontal line, the faster the linear light moves, and the closer it is to a perfect vertical line, the slower the light moves. Complex phenomena take place before the viewer's eyes, despite the use of a simple structure and materials.
Chida considers a "space" that cannot be seen or touched to be associated with a sense of beauty. In the past, painters continued to contrive ways to express "space" on a two-dimensional plane, at times using scientific ideas, while at other times relying on their own sensibilities. Everyone has experienced a time when the overall effect of a certain spatial environment has made them feel comfortable, whether it be inside a building or in nature. So what then is a "space" to us? The position coordinates in a three-dimensional space can be expressed with vector and scalar quantities, but can this be considered the same as a space that contains beauty? What sort of a space is the one a dancer or athlete captures via his/her body? Even though all things exist in a three-dimensional space, we are unable to perceive the space itself. This work was devised to manifest beauty/space itself through pervading the space with low-density materials and by drawing closer to it as a perceivable existence. (T. N.)

Pier Alfeo
Principle of organization
sound art installation
— Italy
BIO
Pier Alfeo (aka Dubit) is a composer and sound artist working with electronic music, currently studying Composition, Musical Informatics, and Multimedia at the Conservatoire of Bari.
His practice as a composer currently ranges from electronic music pieces, immersive audiovisual performance, sound sculptures, and visual works related to sound agency.
Through his artistic practice, Pier Alfeo investigates cognitive and pathological problems caused by the intense relationship between human beings and automation systems in contemporary societies. His multimedia installations, sound sculptures and electronic musical compositions put the repetitiveness of mechanical-algorithmic automation systems under tension with the unpredictability of chaos. In this way, the rigid regularity of serial systems is interrupted and deconstruct from the inside, generating new configurations of meaning. Within these processes, sound acts in an organic way as a destabilizing and healing element at the same time, emerging with its irregular expressiveness.
After living in many cities in Italy, he moved to Berlin where he acquired wide recognition as a music performer by collaborating for various record labels, organising events, and performing at International events and festivals across the European countries and outside, such as Italy, France, UK, Germany, Switzerland, Netherlands, Cyprus, Serbia, Ukraine, Czech Republic, and Kenya; sharing the stage with artists such as Robert Henke, Fennesz, Rashad Becker, and many others.
In 2019, he presented his first solo show "Incisione su Silenzio" at the Doppelgaenger Gallery in Bari. Between 2018 and 2020 he received the honorable mention for "Interferences Quartet" at the MA / IN Matera Intermedia Festival, has also been the "National Prize of Art 2019" section "Electronic Art", the awarded piece featured in the exhibition PNA2019 and FISAD2019 at the Albertina Academy of Turin.

WORK
The work investigates the possibility of using complex graphic models generated by simple and recursive algorithms, exploiting their emerging behaviors, according to the relative theory of complexity and self-organization in natural systems. Through the computation of these large amounts of data, numerical matrices belonging to the fundamental generated cell (tree structure, based on the algorithm related to plant growth) generate a multitude of trends and potential sound behaviors. By using the programming language "Wolfram Language" from Mathematica software for the purposes of timbre research and compositional development, these are organized and agglomerated in sound settings, characterizing the voice of the work. These digital soundscapes are further modulated by the interaction with the user. The interaction is made possible thanks to proximity sensors located on the closest surface of the work; these sensors, connected to an ad-hoc audio-software system (application assembled within the max-msp programming environment loaded on a computer-board), allow the manipulation of sound in real time through the gesture of the one who interacts. The concept is to exploit this formula, in order to create a communicative apparatus in which the gesture meets the primordial sound of its intimate principle.
"The purpose of the artist is expressed in two functions: to settle the genesis of new languages in sound generation, and to sensitise towards the act of listening, through the emission of meditative sounds, to the personal and other's micro-way of being in tune with the whole." (Alessia Savoini)

WORK
Electro Organic Orchestra uses biological impulses to produce electronic music. In 2019 they created the "Germi" project: an audiovisual performance in which sounds and images are generated by the movements of microorganisms in a drop of water.
The dimensions of the imperceptible and of the digital meet in a journey within a microcosm sonorized and reimagined in real time, explored through the lens of a microscope.
The viewer is plunged in a sound and visual experience in which the curiosity and wonder of exploring a microscopic world merge with the imaginative and oneiric dimension while interpreting its infinite atmospheres and dynamics.

Apiario digitale – Il La naturale
Enveloped in the amplified buzz of the bees, we realise that the vibration connects our soul to the cosmic spirit.
The Queen bee's chant is an A at 432 Hz, like the vibration of any other subatomic particle, atom, molecular structure and human cell.
This frequence makes our body and the surrounding nature resonate, reminding us that we're all part of the same Universe even if we have temporarily forgotten it.
