About project
The transmedia sculpture Audire Fluctus is a work of art that straddles the line between a light object and an interactive work in the form of a data totem. It monitors the technological activity of its surroundings and visualizes the electromagnetic radiation generated by the electrical grid, communication devices and electrically powered equipment. Audire Fluctus visualizes this activity using a medium called Spectraflux, which, thanks to its anisotropic structure, can change the refractive index of light, thus creating a unique color and dynamic texture.
Kryštof Brůha developed Spektraflux with the aim of creating a physical medium that enables visual work that transcends the limits of digital media. The installation is located in the space of the National Theatre Piazzetta, a place with a high concentration of electromagnetic devices. It reflects the normally imperceptible action of the force fields in whose networks we move and live, he invisible energy of the city. The installation was created as part of the Signal Calling open call. It was developed and subsequently produced in PrusaLab by Prusa Research.
