The visuals developed during a four-hour-long live coding session are reacting to the Strange Attractions exhibition by London’s United Visual Artists. Ultimately, the goal was to focus on questions of gravitational forces and their unpredictable patterns since the pivotal concept of the exhibition is chaos theory. I thereby explored these topics with physics dynamics, delving deeper into liquid and gas simulation, particle systems, and interplay with light and shadow in these simulations.

This A/V performance was commissioned by the animation festival Fest Anča (SK). The visuals were based on multiple particle systems, including boid behavior and letters as particles. The visualized words, phrases, and letters correspond to Adela's lyrics in three different languages that she interchanges during her performance often creating dissociation in the public. The visuals were created to emphasize the nature of multilingual performance and work with dissociation between three languages. Theby, the majority of visuals were data-driven by lyrics - and transformed into abstract artifacts.
