Abstract
innerNature: Generative Art in Video Format
"innerNature" coupled the physical body and digital nature. During a long period of quarantine under COVID-19, “innerNature” intends to recall everyone’s inner beauty and how we can project our desire for a living environment by the artificial digital world. The external social chaotic dispute and un-proven overwhelming messages from all mediums should not cover the inner beauty born and grow within each of us. No matter how messy and disorder the surroundings are, we can still find the inner peace in our mind, which refers to the “box” shown in the project. Through the mountains, birds, cloud, and sun the artist created, everyone can use their imagination to experience their own beautiful nature during Shelter-In-Place. “innerNature” is a 1:23 film piece. The visual and audio effects of the entire piece are created by the scripts of code as generative art.
Three of my 3D video works, innerNature, LivingWonderland, and Myth from the Future were selected to be exhibited in the “Coupled World” online exhibition under 1EuroCinema organized by Telamagic.online. The exhibition curated by Susanne Janssen, Louisa Teichmann and Telemagic/1EuroCinema would like to experiment the digital form/role of Cinema under this digital-dominated world. The audience can freely navigate on 4 fantasy virtual islands entitled Locked-in Genus, Mimicry Genus, Threshold Genus, and Empowerment Genus addressing different social topics created by the organizer. While on the island, the audience can look for the selected artists’ videos by following the hint (they called it critter) and enjoy them just like playing a video game but also like visiting an actual exhibition. innerNature, LivingWonderland, and Myth from the Future were located on the “Mimicry Genus” island which focuses on the topic of digital nature. Coupled World by 1EuroCinema intends to provide a unique virtual film watching experience to challenge the definition of “Cinema” under this inevitable VR trend.
