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.

Α work based on the rules of kinetic poetry and explores the relationship between Space and Self. The Space defined by our Self [Ego] is malleable, it changes and interacts with the Space of Others. Physical and non-physical, the Space covered by the Ego is hetero-determined and constantly changing in eternity.

Blah as an artwork that interacts with the phenomenon of the speaking subject. The artwork responds to the human voice with air, and the intensity of the air is proportional to the volume of the voice.

Borrowing immersive practices from physical theater and the Black Box framework, the project seeks to create a liberating condition where visitors have the opportunity to experiment with their voice outside the system of organized language.

Blah is the artistic part of my master thesis on the problematic behind the three dimensions of organized language: communication-expression-meaning.

Forest of Winds
Views: 1887

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.
