Paralysis by Analysis

The audiovisual work "Paralysis by Analysis" presents a combined experience that unfolds in two chapters of two and three dimensions respectively. Initially, it is a two-layered audio-reactive visual piece influenced by the musical composition being played. Subsequently, we transition into three dimensions where we observe a system of particles being born, evolving, and dying, while simultaneously, the musical piece has transformed into a hypnotic drone. With this piece, Evangelos attempts to narrate and describe the phenomenon and psychological burden of information overload, a process in which we continuously receive stimuli and data that we try to process and assimilate. For this purpose, we borrow the term "Paralysis by Analysis," an economics studies term, which expresses a disturbance in thinking, the process of information processing, and ultimately the inability to make decisions due to the enormous volume of data we receive. According to this terminology, a person, unable to analyze the entirety of the options available to them (due to the abundance of information), struggles to make decisions and choose the appropriate option for them. The variables are too many, and the person buckles under their weight, unable to balance and analyze them. The work has been created in the environment of visual programming TouchDesigner, and the musical piece is derived from Evangelos's personal discography.

Presentation of 3d projection mapping, on Church of Panagia ton Xenon, Kyra - Faneromeni (Old Town, Corfu, Greece), October 2, 2020 at 10:00.

In the dissertation, following the strategy of deliberate ambiguity and crossing different eras, we go through a path of images and information, which express hope and fear in various fields and they characterize every culture and every society.

At the same time, moving from formalism to realism, it emerges that the Aristotelian definition of the representational unity of space-time-action is no longer valid in art. Undoubtedly, the formalist movement has shown that planes are understood not only as sequences of logical units, but also as theoretical or ideological conceptions, where their connection is not legitimized on the basis of the principle of space-time unit, but by some abstract theoretical model, such as is the model of metaphor, the path through contradictions, symbolism and anything else that enhances the removal of the theoretical model. But also internal realism, which is not a theory of truth, highlights the convergence of two seemingly incompatible ideas.

Forest of Winds
Views: 1736

With the opportunity of the preparation of the trip, the productive process of maintenance, repair and work in the area of the shipyard, the project "Forest of Winds" is created. The project was named "Forest of Winds" because of the sound of the wind passing through the masts of the boats. The "Forest of Winds" is a 360 video animation evolving into a theatrical space and indefinite time. The video depicts the invisible side of a dream, the dream of a journey and its preparation with the forms of workers hovering impersonal in space as work uniforms, creating a choreographed kinesiological narrative process. The forms of workers rub, shine and accomplish all kinds of jobs with their repetitive motions, until they are left in space like objects in an endless free fall.
