VISUALISATION OF UNIVERSAL SOUND  

 

– a part of the artistic research project cycle META_SIGNAL SONAR SYSTEM

– an audio-visual interactive collage combined with Augmented Reality mobile application

Sound is not a communication by itself, it has to have some kind of feedback to become communication. Sound communication can be seen as telepathic or mind communication, or emotionally responsive communication where no words are needed. Artworks represent a possible look into deeper layers of our inner universe. The meaning of these shapes is very individual, and it is hard at this time to resolve this in a metaphorical or symbolic answer. From that point, I see it as a potential opportunity for the audience to experience a meditative fundamental imaginative feedback, called “a clear pulse”.

The role of the 6thSENSE is to give a different possibility of communication between humans, to open people’s eyes. Who knows, maybe this could help us better communicate with aliens. In this process, digital tools help to dive deep into the meaning of the analogue shape of universal sound. Shapes could be defined as logograms of our ancestors, such as logograms designed for Arrival, a science fiction film (2016) directed by Denis Villeneuve and written by Eric Heisserer.

6th SENSE is an audio-visual interactive collage combined with the Augmented Reality mobile application and handmade analogue drawing-collages. The art project 6th SENSE gives a unique artistic experience where every user has the opportunity to experience not only mixed visuals in real time, but also interact or manipulate with sounds in real time. The whole project passes through many layers of creation and research. The project 6th SENSE consists of ten artworks divided into three series: gold, silver and black-gold analogue drawing- collages. Every series has different animated visual patterns and different possibilities of audio transformation. An animated coded visual gives an impression of entity or energy from the real-world object – the analogue artwork.

With this project I test out modern communication space and, in doing so, provoke you to dive deeper into our own sense of togetherness and find a blissful serenity of universal unity. The Art project 6th SENSE, conceptually and technically, is the first art project of that kind in Croatia.
