Sound & Light Installation

Are we facing a crisis of truth? What happens to a society that can not agree on a common reality? This installation explores the erosion of truth and the fragility of our perception in an age of misinformation.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

The Installation

MARIONETTE is a captivating part of the larger exhibition centered around the intriguing phenomenon of fakes. This thought-provoking audiovisual piece immerses visitors in an unsettling experience.

Upon entering the hall, visitors encounter an inverted sky of tents suspended from the ceiling, illuminated by flickering flashes. Thunder accompanies the lightning amidst an immersive rain soundscape. Simultaneously, a spatial piano piece weaves through the ambient soundscape. Its melancholic and warming character evokes a sense of reflection and contemplation.

The installation’s light patterns draw from tracking data of the initial rocket detonations in Ukraine on February 22, 2022. Curiously, mobile video recordings initially attributed these impacts to attacks in Aleppo. For viewers, discerning truth from fiction becomes an intricate challenge, as sound and image intertwine. MARIONETTE serves as a poignant reminder of the need for critical media literacy in our ever-evolving information landscape.

The Exhibition

The entire exhibition deals with the impact of deep fakes on our understanding of reality. These manipulated images and videos infiltrate news and social media, challenging our ability to discern truth from fiction. Marionette serves as a microcosm of this broader issue. It compels us to reevaluate our relationship with media, emphasizing the need for critical thinking and media literacy.

In a society where truth is malleable, we must navigate carefully, seeking reliable sources and questioning what we encounter. The exhibition invites us to do just that.
