Description

Early (and first public) sketch / research of an WIP project. Minted for #HENreunion --- 720x1280 mp4, stereo audio, 60s loop; Memo Akten (memo.tv), 2022; --- "Boundary conditions" is a celebration of being alive, and being able to acknowledge and appreciate our own existence; from the waves of sub-atomic particles dancing in cosmic quantum fields; to our perception of macroscopic structures that we call our bodies, dancing in our bedrooms; connected via a web of waves of dancing electrons and photons on a planetary scale. We perceive the world in categories with clear distinct boundaries. Conceptually, e.g. right vs wrong, cat vs dog, boy vs girl etc. But also physically - we see no ambigiuity in determining where the boundaries lie between objects, where one object ends and another begins. But in reality, everything is deeply connected. Not just in terms of interdependence, but also physically. At one level, we are all just waves in quantum fields, sub-atomic particle vibrations. Yet, somehow, we are conscious, and we experience our existence, and we are aware of our experience of our existence. How is it that sub-atomic waves dancing in cosmic quantum fields are somehow aware of itself as a 'thing' that is, a 'thing' with clear boundaries, a 'thing' that can 'think', and experience pain, joy, sorrow, excitement, pleasure and so much more? Very connected to my previous works, in particular "Reincarnation" (2009), "Forms" (2012), "Waves" (2014), "Deep Meditations" (2018), "Distributed Consciousness" (2021). ---
