I think Ryoji Ikeda’s The Planck Universe is a project I admire because of the vivid contrasting colors of white, black, grey, and red. The number of details in this imposing large-scale audiovisual installation is phenomenal. The small blood-red pixels help make an emphasis to the audience about the concept of Plank length. The piece makes the person looking at it seem like a part or fragment of the cosmos in the monochromatic background filled with abstract red speckled pixels. Using code and sound, he creates visual abstract motions to release his artistic point of view and ideas that avoid a philosophical perspective so that the audience is able to have their own opinions and experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
