Digitale Kunst - Online Artist Vortrag: Michael Saup

Michael Saup will speak about his artistic work embracing the subjacent forces of nature and society such as the nuclear force, materialistic media metrics, fossil and infossil transformations, atomic coding and new world models. “Sometimes, it felt like the inner workings of the universe made visible. It revolved slowly, then grew in complexity until it seemed, in substance if not style, like a collaboration between da Vinci, Picasso and Stephen Hawking.” (Evening Post, New Zealand, 1995)
