Code Density

2015
Scale varies
Immersive 360 video and soundscape

In Code Density, the artist immerses the viewer in code by placing them in the “brain” of the computer. As the code fills up the room, wrapping the viewer in text, the computer struggles to continue processing the data. Glitches appear, creating beautiful digital disasters. The glitches continue as more data pours into the computer, becoming more frequent and complex. The computer finally crashes in a blaze of glitchy glory. 

Viewers are left pondering a number of questions: what was all this data? What was the computer trying to process? The code that the viewer witnessed was simply the hexadecimal code for a blank video file. The complex experience was merely an empty canvas, but even an empty canvas can crash a system when placed front and center.We take this data for granted when it is hidden in the depths of the computer’s brain.

The soundscape presented with this piece is synced with the text on the screen and includes sounds made by a number of hacked digital and analog devices, each representing a different symbol that is displayed.
