the show:
Blobs of the Infinite
space and time are not boundaries
for they are the material
they are the everything and the nothing
the complete emptiness
hyper-immersive experience
feelings of contentment, joy, peace, wonder, awe, euphoria, bliss
translated through the event:
a transportation, an escape, a place to lose oneself within, a sanctuary
the work can exist anywhere in any form
for it is merely a guide into a state of mind
the exploration within my practice and myself steers me towards this state of mind
I am seeking ways to represent it and induce it, to help others through creation
the visual and sonic aspects of the work are tools
I am refining them so that others may use them easily for their benefit
they are abstract representations of my experience
of what resonates with me
what gets me close to a blissful, content state of peace
a state we can all experience and enjoy
the more I know myself, the closer I can get to representing my thoughts and feelings
the purer the representation →
the purer the translation by the viewer →
the greater the experience
control over the environment
to build a hyper-immersive experience
the more control, the greater the experience can be
interior space

floating blobs occupy the space with the viewers
the space itself is distorted and warped, the walls are irregularly curved and angular
the walls, floor and ceiling all move very gradually and slowly, emphasising impermanence and questioning reality
soundscapes of my construction are played loudly
in hi-fi surround out of at least 7 different speakers
meticulously set up and hidden from sight
everything seems other-wordly and vast
the material and textures of the visual and sonic
the blobs pulsate, move slightly, turn
the sonic and visual movement is slow
easing the viewer into a slower state
the light will be very dim
the blobs will be glowing
the colour of the light will be very gradually shifting between red, orange and yellow
warm colours
there will be space available for people to sit, lie down, and walk around
it is important that people are able to share the experience with others at the same time
it is a slow, gentle journey into a very surreal, different reality
that is beautiful and transportive
inspiring and wondrous
peaceful and exciting
engaging the viewers imaginations
making the viewers make
making the viewers look inwards in a good, safe, loving place
exterior space
in nature
speakers placed inside and around the blobs
lights inside the blobs - powerful effect at night
very similar to the interior set up, except the space isn't defined by my walls, but rather by the natural walls of the environment
whether those are cave walls or the horizon

virtual space
VR (virtual reality) headsets could also host the experience
the space can be built and played with in a limitless way here
the sound would of course accompany the visuals
the experience could also be simplified
for wider accessibility
into video
this would be animated, in anyway
the more realistic and high-tec, the more immersive the experience
it would be a journey through a fabricated world
the music would flow with the visuals
unlike the other ways of experiencing the work, this would have a clearer start and stop, controlled by the viewer at home
these could really vary in length, from under a minute to hours long
the experience could also be brought into the gaming world
people could move around the space with a controller
on any games console
flying through a curated, imaginary world
this would open up a lot of interactive possibilities
sounds and images, lights and colours could be triggered
and brought about by the users interactions
selecting or moving near certain objects or into different areas
or moving at high speed or slowly, and so on
making a world that responds to the user
embeds the user
enhances the immersion
