Hexadome Installation Piece
with Constanza Bizraelli aka CAO:
The Burial Theme: Trans-Matter Port and Objects
Inspired by ancient Moche iconography and cosmology, the work explores the dualities of life/death, generation/destruction, and cohesion/dispersion cycles and how they appear as two planes constantly transposed onto one another. The Moche cosmology envisioned certain gates that render the intersections of both planes as a space for events. One of these might be considered the ceremonial or ritual space, a realm in which the distance and division between both worlds would blur.

The Belt was a collaboration between visual artist Michael Tan and musician Privacy, for the 2018 Edition of Berlin Atonal Festival, Berlin Germany.
The Belt is a digital totem pole, constructed entirely from computer parts, with an extended watercooling system which creates a sculptural element. The system contained multiple GPUS which are all cooled by the watercooling system.
