 D1G1GARD3N (digigarden) is an audiovisual architecture bureaux formed by the digital media artists Nivaldo Godoy Jr. (architect and music producer) and Panais Bouki (videomaker and music producer). They started in 2005 producing the video A THOUSAND FRAGMENTS IN GRAY TONES for Sitterwerk institute (Switzerland). They had the work CAOS.TICANTE (a cube that is unfolded in hypercubes to trap and to free human bodies in their geometry) exhibited at the 15th International Festival of Electronic Art VIDEOBRASIL (SESC Pompéia), and at the 19th São Paulo Audiovisual Exhibition (MIS - Museum of Image and Sound). They are responsible for official DVDs of the International Electronic Language Festival (FILE 2005 and FILE RIO 2006), where they accomplished a video-instalation, edition, soundtrack, and audiovisual identity of the FILE logo. The work received the name of DIGITALIS. Their work SONGS OF GOOGLISM (2006-2007) consists in the use of the GOOGLISM tool by Google for the creation of texts formed by fragments of sentences coming from different sites on the internet. Those enumerated sentences start to compose a multifaceted definition on a given subject, according to the term defined in the search. The result is a set of ideas that separately don't create a closed meaning, but they build an mesh of definitions. The process consists in making that resulting text be read by the computer with the use of voice-emulation software and vocoders (at the same time it is projected as sentences during the presentation). Sound structures were composed to accompany the text reading, transforming the result into a kind of music that comments the sentences' meaning. SONGS OF GOOGLISM was performed at HIPERSÔNICA 2006 (FIESP) and VERBO 2007 (galeria Vermelho). D1G1GARD3N presented their new audiovisual work ONEIRONAUTS at Cabaret Voltaire (Dada Haus). |
