Monocolor, the alias of Vienna-based audiovisual artist Marian Essl, explores the interrelations between sound and image in both performance-based and installation-based works. While not explicitly focused on digital biophilia, Monocolor's work often incorporates organic textures and fluid structures that evoke natural forms. The artist's mission focuses on creating immersive audiovisual experiences that blur the lines between digital and organic realms. Core values include innovation, experimentation, and sensory engagement, with a purpose to redefine the boundaries of audiovisual art.
Location
Headquarters: Vienna, Austria.
Primary operations locations: Various global locations for performances and installations.
The Digital Biophilia Vision
Core principles: While not explicitly stated, Monocolor's work often incorporates organic textures and fluid structures that evoke natural forms, indirectly promoting a connection with nature through digital media.
Key innovations: Development of fully generative, algorithmically created imagery that oscillates between fluid, organic textures and rigid structures, creating immersive audiovisual experiences.
Pioneering Solutions
Flagship projects: "Sinew" (music video for Kenji Araki), "Sentient Ocean" (audiovisual live performance), "Entangled Structures" (audiovisual fulldome performance).
Unique value propositions: High-quality, innovative audiovisual art that prioritizes immersion, sensory engagement, and the exploration of organic forms through digital means.
The Regenerative Future
R&D focus areas: Advancing audiovisual technologies, exploring new ways to integrate organic textures and movements into digital art, and developing applications that challenge perceptions of reality and nature.
Ambitious goals: To lead the audiovisual art industry in creating experiences that foster a connection between digital and natural realms, inspiring a deeper appreciation for organic forms through technology.
Fact Sheet
Commercial Availability: Performances and installations available for exhibitions, festivals, and commissioned projects.
Biophilia Rating: 3/5 (Incorporation of organic textures and fluid structures, but not explicitly focused on biophilia).
Key Recognitions: Japan Media Arts Festival New Face Award for "Latent Space" (2020), Golden Wire Award nomination (2019).
Innovation Rating: 5/5 (Cutting-edge use of generative algorithms and audiovisual technologies).
User Engagement: High level of sensory immersion and emotional resonance.
Key Takeaway
Monocolor transforms the audiovisual art industry through innovative, immersive experiences that blend digital and organic realms, setting a benchmark for exploring the boundaries between technology and nature.
