The Aurora Consurgens Project articulates a visual and sonic installation, sounds that are diffused on a binaural mode, and that transforms the space around, according to the laws of standing waves behavior, and people movments.

Agent Based Modeling and Simulation: An Informatics Perspective

“Agent interaction models which provide indirect mechanisms of communication will be classified into artifact mediated and spatially grounded models. The distinction is based on the inspiration and metaphor on which these models are rooted. The former provide the design and implementation of an artifact which emulates concrete objects of the agents’ environments whose goal is the communication of autonomous entities. Spatially grounded agent interaction models bring the metaphor of the modeling agent environment to the extreme, recognizing that there are situations in which spatial features and information represent a key factor and cannot be neglected in analyzing and modeling a system.”

Curious Displays explores our relationship with devices and technology by examining the multi-dimensionality of communication and the complexity of social behavior and interaction. In its essence, the project functions as a piece of design fiction, considering the fluctuating nature of our present engagement with media technology and providing futurist imaginings of other ways of being.
