un_i[n]verso – audiovisual sculpture expands into eight audiovisual miniatures that delve deeper into its conceptual and narrative dimensions, articulating new trajectories within its overarching structure.

Conceived as independent yet interconnected scenes, these pieces maintain a core narrative thread while remaining open to diverse sequences of experience. They function as explorations of abstract storytelling, utilizing audiovisual counterpoint and fragmentation to unfold simultaneously on formal, technical, and aesthetic levels. This fragmentation is not merely temporal, but manifests as a plurality of expressive modes, where the narrative and its deep connection to history are often implicit in the techniques themselves, ranging from morphing and photogrammetry to scanline synthesis and the use of non-linear functions, differential equations, and deterministic chaos algorithms. Following the progression established in Un_i[n]verso, the journey begins in distant, undefined digital landscapes and gradually leads to the emergence of decaying digital architectures. What initially appears as an unknown, primordial void slowly reveals itself, tracing a narrative line from wide aerial views, where faint traces mark the ground, to the visceral detail of cracks in concrete, drawing the viewer into a confined and recognizable space. This progression culminates in a meta-level resonance with Hans Blumenberg’s concept of the “shipwreck with spectator,” reflecting the human condition toward history and existence. It embodies the enduring tension between the desire for security and the appetite for risk, detachment and involvement, contemplation and action. Ultimately, the boundary dissolves, as the viewer becomes the shipwrecked, embodying the spectator and becoming an integral part of the narrative itself.
