In this video, the flower appears like a fragile signal, briefly captured as it passes through a digital transmission system that reacts in real time to sound. Its petals break apart, shift and pixelate in sync with the music, as though the audio were continually trying to read and rewrite the image of nature. Each glitch opens a new layer of memory: colors vibrate, overlap and distort, turning the flower into a luminous, unstable trace, always on the edge of apparition or disappearance.
Here, sound behaves like an environment: it activates each distortion as if social and environmental forces were constantly reshaping the image of nature. It acts both as a disturbance and a vital force; every beat fractures the flower but also triggers a new configuration, suggesting how our surroundings and collective dynamics can damage, yet also renew, the living forms around us.
The piece reflects on the ephemeral nature of flowers and the way human technologies reshape them. The original blossom is short‑lived, yet its audio‑reactive digital double can loop endlessly, recomposed frame after frame by sound. Through compression, noise and error, the flower acquires a second nature: an infinite, flickering version of itself, suspended between decay and renewal.
