Cardiac topology...

05/29/23 - Rafael Lozano-Hemmer (Mexico, 1967) presents an interactive installation at Superblue Miami that combines flashing lights with sound and is completed with the intervention of the visitor. The title of the work is Pulse Topology and it consists of a series of electric light bulbs linked together in undulating shapes (like hills and valleys) from which different sensors emerge. If we bring our hand closer to the sensor, it takes our heartbeat, records it and translates it into sound and light in real time.

Lozano-Hemmer says that the work was inspired by the 1960 Mexican film Macario, in which the lead character experiences hallucinations induced by hunger. Every living person on the planet appears poetically represented as a fragile flickering candle (the light bulbs) inside the caves of Cacahuamilpa.

Interactive installations are one of our favorites because they invite us to experiment and feel part of the creative world of artists. In this way our routinely lives become extraordinary. Technology sometimes allows us to create this type of unique experiences that not only leads us to enjoy but also to reflect
