In-Love: Technological Blasphemy
Abstract
In_love technological blasphemy is a project developed by the Colombian interdisciplinary group Los Pixeleros which purpose is to create art artworks that integrate different fields of knowledge of human and exact sciences, also the expertise and experience of its individuals. The project In_love emerges from the thoughts of creating an artwork from human emotions, and how these intertwined conform a multicolor knitting of social relations.
The project has planned to connect users to an interface that transfers the heart beat signal to a process of the interactive experience, from analog to digital perceptions. In love plans to have a projection screen which visualizes the signals together by a scale of Kelvin degrees in pixels and a perforating machine which will feed with several the patterns a loom that knits in a variety colors with this perforated language.
In_love structure is based in diverse signifiers, in order to create different meanings, the project questions the work of art and its action as an autonomous sign, not only as one but as multiple of these, generating an intentional reality creating a system that can be experienced as a whole or by each of its parts.
The artwork acts as an intentional reality, of multiple signs by a symbiosis of knowledge intertwined in the interactive praxis. In_love questions the intentional behavior of people in front of interfaces exploring a new meaning to the experience of users with interfaces given the fact a parasympathetic impulse is the one that detonates the experience of the multiple signifiers, a signal that goes through a series of systems and languages, simultaneously producing on many levels of thought and representations tangible and symbolic.
