The Looking Outwards from week 4 was about sound art and I am extremely interested in how sound is being visualised today within generative art practices. Nick Wong’s LO on Nanotak Studio’s Daydream was extremely fascinating for me. Although the idea of adding sound visualisation has recently become prevalent in art and design. It does start to allow for a more immersive experience. This installation aimed at establishing a physical connection between the virtual space and the real space, blurring the limits and submerging the audience into a short detachment from reality. Lights generate abstract spaces while sounds define the echoes of virtual spaces. Daydream is an invitation to contemplation, and the frontality of the installation leads the visitors to a passive position, almost overwhelming them with the audiovisual effects. I definitely feel Nick could have added a video which would have helped me better understand the project at first glance.
