Automatic Impermanence by Alex Braga, showcased at Palazzo Cipolla during the exhibition Ipotesi Metaverso, is a cutting-edge multimedia installation blending technology and art to explore themes of impermanence and the human experience in a digital age. Developed in collaboration with visual artist Nicola Carpeggiani, who crafted the interactive video elements, the installation leverages advanced artificial intelligence and 3D scanning to transform participants' presence into dynamic, abstract art.
As visitors interact, the system captures their forms and movements, converting them into point clouds within a 3D space. These visual representations evolve in sync with Braga's music, creating a constantly shifting fusion of sound and visuals. Produced by Robert Lippok, the project examines the delicate interplay of human and machine, challenging viewers to reflect on the boundaries of technology and humanity, and to "find the infinite within the finite"
This innovative work underscores Braga's commitment to sustainable and decentralized approaches in art, aiming to promote mindfulness in a world increasingly shaped by digital and ecological concerns
