layered virtual space of a projection – a challenge
to the digital language itself, describing the blend of
virtual and artificial. It is choreography of the two,
which becomes real when entered into the sphere of
the personal narrative of the viewer; or maybe it’s
not a viewer but a director instead.”
Image as anAvatar andMetaphysical Interfacing
Starting from the fact that our natural sensors (our
five or even six senses) are still limited in relation
to the existence of a multi-layered universe we live
in, we have no other options than to develop an al-
ternative way to excavate what is “true” and what
is “real” in relation to the human, the divine and the
intellectual. The artists would rather substitute the
word “fiction”with theword “mythology”, which is
more real in the sense that it goes back thousands of
years, unifying cultures by having common stories,
common heroes and common questions.
Finally, it is all about storytelling. There are three pa-
rameters that will always be the base of human evo-
lution, say the artists: art, philosophy and religion.
In order to explore the element of dilution which
is always present in our relation with the image, a
“mathematical formula” is being introduced in order
to dare and experiment with the metaphysical ele-
ment and turn image into action; a more telekinetic
translation of an image. In this paper the results of
years of exploration into scientific and artistic re-
search in the field of body electromagnetics, geo-
magnetics and the human thinking as energy and
thoughts as chemistry in the body. Humanity is at a
cross point of its evolution and now is the best time
to intervene into the thinking process and shift it to
the more anthropocentric.
The formula is as follows:
[GM] Global state of mind
[F] Fluid image - a multi-interpretation of image
based on perception and beliefs of the user
[Φ] Metaphysical variable - a variable based on the
ability and training of the user
[BF] Information bio-feedback - experience in the
body can be looped, amplified or blocked
[I] Information saturation
[M] Mechanical or physical result
[E] Energy produced out of curiosity
