ThE ICARUS PROJECT

March, 2023

We could see modern tech as Icarus’ wings, it brings us to unimaginable heights, but eventually also doom. Right? Well, the Icarus myth is often seen as this tale against being reckless. But in reality there’s more to it:

Icarus father advised him to avoid extremes, not go too heigh, and not go too low. The true lesson in there might be to use technology in a balanced way, integrating extremes. But what would such a balanced future look like?

This artwork experiments with creating a journey through such a future, that integrates extremes. One that combines reckless and careful, old and new, and reality and simulation.

The piece revolves around a central object. A simulation of a hydrogen combustion engine in a peculiar engine shape. Calculated with a new supercomputer (DelftBlue) of the Technical University Delft, The Netherlands.

Around it you see AI creating a journey passed elements from the Icarus myth, like water and fire. Adding to it all sorts of AI generated content. The vehicles, the buildings, and objects. It's all AI generated.

The Icarus Project hopes to inspire a future equilibrium and was realized as an NFT within an artist residency at the Crossing Parallels program.

Qube Mouse

April, 2022

Qube Mouse is a quantum object that is in a continuous transition. It consists of human, natural, and artifact parts. Measurements of the energy of a quantum vacuum* result in a random data stream that triggers the variations in the shape.

To us, a vacuum would come closest to nothing. It’s a space with nothing in it. In the quantum world of unimaginable small scale, true vacuums do not exist. Particles continuously pop in and out of existence. Because of this, on a quantum level even a vacuum contains an energy and has an attractive force.
