data.gram [n°11] A solo presentation by Ryoji Ikeda at Zero 10

Almine Rech presents 'data.gram [n°11]' by Ryoji Ikeda at Zero 10, Art Basel's global initiative dedicated to art of the digital era

In 'data.gram [n°11],' Ryoji Ikeda explores the aesthetic potential of scientific data to display different scales of the Universe. Those audiovisual installations allow viewers to visualize some of the less well understood aspects of our cosmos—from the tiny world of quantum particles to human-sized environments and the vast scales of clusters of galaxies. Ikeda uses data from established research institutions to craft a story about the natural world. The use of data-driven imagery to show hidden elements of the Universe invites us to reflect on the mysteries that the cosmos holds, such as the quantum vacuum and the existence of dark matter.
