Description

HALO by Shojiro Nakaoka considers signals as fragile interfaces between entities. Living beings continuously exchange information through reflected light, sound, and subtle vibrations. We read halos in vision, echoes in space, and residual impressions in matter as ways of understanding the world. In this piece, I focus on signals flowing between humans and computational systems. These signals are abstracted, fragmented, and recomposed through code, circulating according to logics distinct from biological perception. Rather than conveying fixed meaning, they produce feedback, resonance, and deviation as they are processed. The work is rendered in real time using WebGL and the WebAudio API and captured as a single uninterrupted take directly from the browser. At regular intervals, a complete black frame is inserted, introducing a strobe-like interruption. This momentary blackout leaves retinal afterimages that merge with subsequent frames, producing floating impressions that do not exist as data within the system itself. Halo-like visual artifacts emerge and dissolve as incidental results of calculation rather than as symbolic forms. They appear at the threshold where perception supplements what computation does not contain. HALO reflects on machine-mediated communication as an unstable exchange, where meaning arises not from clarity, but from residual traces shaped by signal, noise, and perception.
