Nexus - Lukáš Dřevjaný, Luboš Zbranek and others

  • Installation

The Nexus grows algorithmically in time and space. Like the rhizome, the mycelium, or human and non-human neural networks, the individual cells of this digital moss are constantly exchanging information.

The body of the work is made up of 300 eight-legged acrylic cells, straddling all axes of space. The individual building elements are interconnected, functioning as a volumetric display. The installation has predefined shape variants and can be placed in a specific spatial context. The installation is modifiable and scalable and can be easily packed up and relocated.
