We are two passionate media artists from Berlin, Germany working with projection mapping of fluid, organic generative/procedural realtime-animations onto objects and sculptures, embedded in atmospheric soundscapes. No AI.

Ever worth remembering we were never asked how much we wanted "AI" in our lives, if at all, and to what extent.
Instead we find ourselves thankful for opportunities to opt-out, forgetting all the while there was no opt-in.
It's not the '2nd industrial revolution'. It's just more imperialism.
"Komm, großer schwarzer Vogel" / "Come, big black Bird"
So let your mind and spirit wander and soar.
Remember that you are free.
And that one day, you will go back to potentiality...
May your journey be a light one!

"Komm, großer schwarzer Vogel" / "Come, big black Bird"
I woke up recently with the idea for this meditative animation.
At first it was white on black only, but then the next day I woke up with the title, which is also the title of a sad and beautiful song by the Austrian poet/singer/songwriter Ludwig Hirsch, so I added the animated inversion.

"Metamorphosis" · The Galactic Lens
In this video, we concentrate our macro camera on the 70cm fresnel lens of the huge movie spotlight. It is quite fascinating how the individual rings bend the light and create another layer of form and movement.

"The Tides · Of Life"
The creation of the sculpture
This video shows how the #sculpture was originally designed as a logo in #Softimage #XSI and rendered in different styles over the years
In 2024 we finally made it into the wall #lamp it always was supposed to be by 3D-printing it in four pieces on a #Creality #Ender 5 Plus

4 million particles that look straight ahead, to the left and right and decide where to go by where it is brightest.

So my research and development is bearing fruit:
Today I tried out using my new physarum force with SDF-text in the form of our Media·Art studios name https://UrbanFlow.art
And together with several other forces this turned out beautiful!

"Metamorphosis"
This is the daylight version of the installation, where you can see the huge movie spotlight from the GDR state-TV station 'DFF' in all it's glory.
Sporting a 70cm fresnel lens, weighting in at 125kg, dating from 1970 and originally being equipped with a 20,000watt lightbulb, this really is a monster.
