A new immersive work by Random International is coming to Miami this November. Living Room explores the idea of space as a living being. Visitors are invited to enter a fluctuating architectural domain, which is itself a sentient organism embodied in light and fog. The organism uses these materials to express itself and interact with those who inhabit it. Continually altering its form in response to visitors in varying and unpredictable ways, Living Room creates a living labyrinth in real time and in real space.

Leveraging blockchain technology in a revolutionary way, visitors can visualise their physical experience within the installation as a looped video, and perpetually mint and collect it on the blockchain.

Tickets available here.

Life in Our Minds is an NFT Project with Danil Krivoruchko, produced by Pace Verso and Snark.art

It is one of the most collaborative, technologically innovative NFT projects to date. It opens up an interplay between collective ownership and individual mark-making, re-staging art within a new (meta)-universe that has its own rules and, in so doing, represents a new form of public sculpture.

Life in Our Minds NFTs are available for purchase on Snark.art’s OG.Art NFT platform from October 25 2022.

Future Self is a performative light installation that studies human movement and investigates identity, the relationship we have with our own image and with others. The installation created by Random International is a three-dimensional living sculpture that presents viewers with their full-length body image, three dimensionally distributed as tiny points of light. Choreographed by Wayne McGregor, two dancers intensely explore the installation, communicating with one another and their own reflections through light as well as the body. Throughout the performance, music, artwork and the human form are unified into one immediate and emotional experience. A score by composer Max Richter accompanies the work.

“Swarm Study (Glass)” is currently on display at Kunsthalle Praha as part of their inaugural exhibition, “Kinetismus: 100 Years of Electricity in Art”

The scope of Kinetismus: 100 Years of Electricity in Art spans the early artistic use of motorised movement and artificial light through to advanced computational models, information technology, and digital art. The exhibition features over 90 works from several generations of artists and is open until the 20th June.

Curated by SUUM in collaboration with Fact and 180 Studios, LUX brings together 12 of the World’s most celebrated artists to expand the boundaries of immersive art and blur the lines between the physical and virtual worlds.

Taking over 180 The Strand's subterranean spaces, LUX features new 180 Studios Commissions from Es Devlin, Hito Steyerl and Julian Knxx alongside the UK premiere of 'Renaissance Generative Dreams' by Refik Anadol, and incredible works by Carsten Nicolai, a'strict, Cao Yuxi, Cecilia Bengolea, Random International and Universal Everything.

The exhibition is open until 18th December - ticket booking and more information can be found on the 180 The Strand website.

We are pleased to announce the live world premiere of ‘No One is an Island’ during Frieze London.

The performance comprises sculptural, performative and musical aspects. The centrepiece is a sculpture by Random International that experiments with the minimal amount of information that is actually necessary for an animated form to be recognised as human; and the fundamental impact created by subtle changes within that information. As it transitions from robot to human likeness, dancers from Company Wayne McGregor interact with the sculpture in a live, kinetic performance, further exploring the relationship between humans and technology and our capacity to empathise with a machine. The dancer’s interventions scored by Chihei Hatakeyama add a performative dimension to the sculpture, re-translating and celebrating the connection between human and mechanical movement.

Random International will debut Body / Light I on May 6 at Manhatten West. Presented by Arts Brookfield, Superblue and BMW, Body / Light I will bring the open-air plaza to life this May amidst Frieze New York’s return to the city. Manhattan West’s inaugural public art experience, the exhibition is part of Random International’s Body / Light series, which draws inspiration from Pablo Picasso’s famed ‘light drawings’ for LIFE magazine in 1949. Captured by Gjon Mili, the ephemeral experiments in self-creation explored the long exposure technique, allowing Picasso’s sketches in light to hang suspended in air on still film. Seeking to reflect a shift in authorship from a single creator to collective and multi-disciplinary creation processes, Random International took inspiration from a year-long collaboration with BMW i and the precise, minimalist culture of their design group as well as the technologies enabling the electrification of mobility in order to develop this new body of work. More information available at the Brookfield Arts Website

Random International and BMW i present: “No One is an Island”. Digital world premiere of an installation of Random International in collaboration with Studio Wayne McGregor conflating artificial intelligence with the human capacity to empathise.

“No One is an Island” is fueled by science and explores electrified movement steered by advanced algorithms. It is a future-oriented reflection on how the human mind empathises with artificial intelligence and automated processes. The performance comprises sculptural, performative and musical elements.
