Cyber_mondrian
is an audiovisual installation which uses cerebral
waves as a composition tool. This work can be considered
an hommage to the celebrated abstract painter Pier
Mondrian. Cyber_mondrian presents only vivid colored
squares and white lines on a black surface. The synthetic
forms in this case are moved by cerebral activities
originating in the frontal lobe of the participant/viewer.
The result is an abstract minimal piece where the
participant/viewer becomes the creator of the work
of art unfolding in front of him/her.
