Oceanosmos通过空间声音、激光平面、投影、烟雾与水的互动来创造一个沉浸式空间来探索“海洋感觉” : 一种自我与世界相化而为一的灵性体验。

灵感来自作家罗曼·罗兰的关于“海洋感觉”Oceanic Feeling: 一种主体消融,与外部世界融为一体的感受。 费洛伊德将这种“海洋感觉”的解读为一种从胎儿时期保留的原始的自我意识

Oceanosmos使用Ambisonic多声道空间声音阵列,用海洋与人体内的声音编织出一个生成式的沉浸式声景。运用混沌算法驱动的粒子合成器处理水下及日常的声音采样,生成一种介于具象和抽象之间的声音景观。创造出介于一个深海与子宫之间的世界框架,让观众探索外部与自我之间的关系,感受意识在边缘的徘徊。

同时水泵和电机与玻璃装置的结合,为空间中的光效提供了另一层面的动态变化,激光在变化水波的折射下,产生海浪般灵动的视觉效果。 作品通过沉浸式多感官体验,引导观众在声音、水、和雾中探索内部与外部的关系,将自我的边界消解,与所在空间形成一种连续体。




Oceanosmos is an immersive audio-visual installation inspired by the "oceanic feeling,” as described by writer Romain Rolland. It aims to convey a sense of the infinite and eternal, where the self dissolves, merging with the external world. Freud interpreted this "oceanic feeling" as a primitive self-awareness retained from infancy. Oceanosmos creates an immersive space using spatial sound, laser planes, projections, smoke, and water interaction to explore this "oceanic feeling" – a spiritual experience where the self and the world become one.

Oceanosmos employs an Ambisonic multi-channel spatial sound array, weaving sounds from the ocean and within the human body to create a generative immersive sonic landscape. The work processes sound samples recorded from underwater microphones and portable recorders using chaotic algorithms, resulting in a generative soundscape that hovers between the concrete and the abstract. Through the cues provided by generative sound, Oceanosmos aims to construct a world that exists between the deep sea and the womb, enveloping the audience completely. It encourages the audience to explore the blurred boundary between the external and the self.

The visual installation takes shape in multiple womb-like glass sculptures, constantly modulating the laser projection. Programmed mechanisms create ripples on the water's surface, using refracted lasers to produce different visual patterns. Sound coordinates with programmed projections and lasers to deliver an experimental cross-media narrative. Through immersive nonlinear storytelling, the work guides the audience to explore the relationship between the internal and external, dissolving the boundaries of the self and establishing continuity with the surrounding space.
