Musicophilia

April 2023 | Musicophilia, Mexico City | Phygital AI Processes for Film and Performances
Premiered at the Technological Art Exhibition at Ciudad Creativa Digital, Media Arts Festival Guadalajara, Mexico.

Musicophilia is an AI generative art project inspired by the fantastic book "Musicophilia: Tales of Music and the Brain" by Oliver Sacks. I'm deeply interested on the Neurodivergent Voices of Liminality under the effects of Deep Listening, in contrast with the invisible forces of the "Synthetic and Artificial Worlds" as part of a consciousness system of planetary computation coded by Nature. Also I'm quite interested in new "materialities" resulting from phygital experimentation between video, body make-up and artificial intelligence VFX.

With the special participation of the Mexican dancer Euridice Navi (Body in Motion).
