About Kurokawa’s artwork on Sedition
syn_mod.1 offers the viewer what seem like snapshots into infinity, a chaotic glimpse, strobe-like and married to a shattering pulse of sound. The viewer can identify patterns, eyes, even faces, without ever being able to settle for one interpretation because of the pace that each image is displayed at. However, what at first might seem random reveals itself as a carefully orchestrated exploration of abstract and musical patterns.

In this new work, Japanese artist Ryoichi Kurokawa obscures everyday imagery with vibrating, impossibly detailed geometric constellations, hinting at an unseen structural order. Performed live on dual screens, his visuals are accompanied with clouds of sound that pulse in an overwhelming sensory experience.

In association with Alpha-ville, the London-based organisation dedicated to connecting the fields of art, technology and digital culture through events and a magazine at alpha-ville.co.uk.
