“Together with fellow Angry Man Jeroen van Hofwegen, I created a generative visual that shows the state of your living room. To do this we use the sound, light and temperature as input. The state of your living room is projected on your wall. The wall gets filled by organisms that live there in an abstract world. The wall is their habitat. So if it’s dark and there is no sound, some creatures will fall asleep.”
