Topix: Experiential journey of urban space

The contemporary city is understood as a dynamic system defined by a network of tangible and non-tangible variables, which behave differently depending on space, context, situation and time. Each of these behaviors can be identified and interpreted through the new digital tools and processes, algorithms and numbers, which at the end of the study process are stored and structured as DATA. Topix is an urban element and part of the dynamic system of today's cities, which induces and promotes new conversations between space, its variables and its inhabitants.
Topix is an interactive installation generated, developed and implemented through digital processes, establishing a coherent correlation place - interactive urban object. The image is one of the languages of interaction in contemporary cities, and through it, Topix narrates stories that are built in streets, public and semi-public spaces, showing each inhabitant a new vision of the city in specific periods of time, creating new experiences, memories and urban scenes through the video installation.

    In the Ear of a Savage Detective

    Net Art

    With a minimum of 3 points that meet, a plane is generated, and only with 2 points a line appears, that is, a path. The registration of a series of routes generates a cartography, a space where it is intended to organize a series of spatio-temporal coordinates. How arbitrary are the parameters with which the fragments of a story are located (ordered) so that it has some kind of logical sense? How random are the clues behind the stories?

    Water Resistance is a project that seeks to establish a reflection on media and electronic devices based on water as a point of attraction in technological development. It also includes an exploration of the materialities or interaction interfaces and how, based on their interconnections with the supports, a tension can be provoked between two elements of great relevance to life: water and electricity.

    be urban

    The work is part of a series of photographs taken in the Santiago Metro, which have later been intervened. This photograph is a reflection of the lost soul and the search for the human in an urban environment where we all seem disfigured and confused, where the human group at times seems like a mass.

    Pre-packed Utopias' analyzes the role of utopias/dreams in contemporary society. These are either reduced/presented as commodities and pre-packaged prototype products, or escapist dream like landscapes, alluring to an alternative to everyday experience.

    Bogotá, many public spaces have been intervened by artists, illustrators, graffiti artists or anyone with the desire to paint the street. The tracks became the corridors of the urban museum. Among many drawings, colors and techniques, the one that inspired this photo caught my attention to reproduce and reinterpret it.

    The confrontation and childhood memories in the 80's generated a dual character in my personality.

    This summer mosquito will be worse than ever

    Silvia de Gennaro / Italy
    www.assaus.it

    It is an article headline. The most used words by media and politicians are: alert, danger and catastrophe. The violence wielded by an alarmist and defeatist society produces scared and secluded men who have no ambition. In the video the protagonist shelters in a garret, where she is weaving a spider web to catch the “malicious” mosquito.
