Technology as a transmitter mean

In this presentation, OPN Studio explores technology as a means of artistic expression and communication. Through electronics, robotics, video and interactive installations, Ballesteros and Montañés transform scientific and technological processes into experiences that encourage reflection and create a more direct dialogue between artworks and audiences. Their approach uses technology not merely as a tool, but as a medium for communicating ideas about human identity, society and our relationship with the world.
