About project
Created specifically for the monumental architecture of the Archbishop’s Palace, the video mapping Eternal Recurrence is a digital saga of the origin and evolution of life forms. The projection first takes the viewer through the environment of the primary molecular stages of a chaotic beginning, from which larger organic structures gradually take shape. Subsequently, it is also possible to recognize the regularities of the principle of differential growth as a natural algorithm that generates increasingly complex stages of life, its vegetative and biological forms. The dynamics of exponential growth is constantly increasing. Evolution reaches its peak and moves towards the inevitable moment of its own collapse, which consists in returning to the starting point – the singularity. Metaphorically, the work raises the surprising question of how our cultural notions of the linearity of time are paradoxically related to the cyclical nature of natural processes. A question that is one of the key themes of all great philosophical and spiritual concepts. The music and sound design of the video was created by Pavel Ridoško aka Rido.
