RYOJI IKEDA : THE TRANSFINITE

[@artinhjollder4779]

The real beauty of Ikeda’s work lies in its ability to provoke some of the deepest thoughts you’ve had on the nature of sound and, even, reality. I still remember sitting in my friend’s college dorm on an early psilocybin-fueled journey, listening to Ikeda’s 2001 release, Matrix; the disc consisted of one long sine wave whose properties were such that, in an enclosed room, the sound would change depending on your ears’ relation to the speakers. Climbing on top of furniture and seeking new aural vantage points, all involved were dramatically moving their heads and bodies in an attempt to modulate the tone and thus control it, a truly novel moment in my progression of understanding/having my mind blown about sound. That is the essence of Ryoji Ikeda: he throws everything you knew about reality out the window and thrusts open those rusted doors of perception.

[@andrewramsey6730]

Manouchehr Nik but it was really more the shrooms than the sine wave, right?

[@patriciosiquot]

what an experience

[@ElijahBerg0011]

@@andrewramsey6730sound always changes depending on what angle you hear it from, sine waves have a much clearer effect of that. And shrooms enhance just about everything that goes on in your brain.

This must be what feels like to be in a photo copier

[@d33w]

Saw this live at the MAAT in Lisbon a few weeks ago, it was a mind blowing experience.

[@henrybeckwith6893]

Thank you for the seizure warning.

[@ilumijaxxi]

LOL

[@Kikaki79]

I love how people explore art installations, each one experiencing it differently. Also each picture of the same installation is never the same making each snapshot a different artwork. This is a bit tiring for the eyes but still there is a great, interesting relationship between pattern, light and shadow of the visitors! Very interesting video!

[@azu6561]

Good eye

[@MarcusDorsey]

There's something relaxing about this piece

[@shpark213]

Marcus Dorsey That seems weirdly correct.. I see people lying on the floor.

[@eEefloormouse]

as an installation piece (PAA) it really was.

[@ronneasty7548]

Be came aware of this brilliant artist after I saw bits of his London Light Show on a video Love is Murder by Al Ross on u tube . Now Im checking all his marvelous stuff.

[@artinhjollder4779]

Ryoji Ikeda's biostates that his work exploits the'causality of sound with human perception'.It's a claim that makes sense when experiencing his music (especially in an installation or performance setting, where the bulk of his work has been for the past few years); Ikeda's minimalist, rigorous electronica seriously plays with the listener's head.

[@jsmith3980]

Very well said.

[@slytown]

What a beautiful and mind-blowing piece.

[@jsmith3980]

Thanks for posting.Looking forward to event at Selfridges next week.

[@L-u-c-a-L-9]

This is incredibly calming and meditative. One feels incredibly safe through the scenery in the noise and in the scenic isolation from the outside world. It crackles down on you like a waterfall. This can be compared well with standing under the shower, where you are also completely separated from the outside world by the water that forms a protective wall around you. Only that this installation is a celebration for my aesthetic senses. Das ist unfassbar Beruhigend und Meditativ. Man fühlt sich durch die Kulisse im Geräusch und in der szenenhaften Abschottung zur Außenwelt unheimlich geborgen. Es prasselt wie ein Wasserfall auf einen herab. Das ist gut mit dem stehen unter der Dusche zu vergleichen, wo man ebenfalls durch das Wasser, dass einen Schutzwall um einen herum bildet, komplett von der Außenwelt getrennt. Nur das diese Installation ein Fest für meine ästhetischen Sinne ist.

[@moeezS]

This is amazing. Love that the camera makes it feel more like an illusion.

[@geoffraby6412]

Extraordinary. MONA in Hobart has a new installation by Ryoji Ikeda inspired by CERN in Geneva.

[@ILPRATODIBAUDELAIRE]

i saw one of his show in florence in 2011 . wonderful.

[@benjaminkroll1242]

I legit cried, this is absolutely beautiful, very evocative and visceral. Those bass-tones just hit me like a ton of bricks.

[@JimGarnerGroundScouts]

I did not get through the whole 9 minutes due to bad cell but... WHAT IS THIS?

[@benjaminkroll1242]

It is an art installation made by Ryoji Ikeda, a minimalist noise artist. I like listening to his work a lot, sometimes I find myself imagining machinery that makes those bleeps and bloops and fuzzes!

[@JimGarnerGroundScouts]

Gotcha! You should watch the original Logan's Run Movie, with Farah Fawcett! There was similar sounds all through that movie. Especially in the end when they were going to the "red crystal"!

[@benjaminkroll1242]

I've heard of that before, yeah I should totally do that!! Great suggestion!

[@britpopbrat2467]

What a fantastic artist he is. Just found him now. The Video Love is Murder by Al Ross and the Planets led me here as its got great sky light thanks boys!

[@sebbekiller]

This is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen

[@sandansaiyan5675]

He and Ryuchi Sakamoto are living legend of electronic music.One guy created most of modern techno/electro genres, and another one just make from it some metaphysical shit😎🤤

[@steve73108]

Neat to think you are hearing binary communication. Energy is matter. Astounding video.

[@TheBeatVoyager]

Human creativity at its finest!!!!

[@MyrianNapp]

This video got us to see how is going our urban life, the sounds and the lights we are exposed to, amazing video that inspires us to work with

[@danielhornbeck6588]

I love this in the same way Ash loved Xenomorphs: "The perfect organism. Its structural perfection is matched only by its hostility. I admire its purity. A survivor... unclouded by conscience, remorse, or delusions of morality."

[@nellind1]

Video and music are really great!

[@rupturefarmz2678]

Is this why you aren't supposed to stick forks in wall outlets?

[@TiberiumX001]

Too cool. When can this come to Dallas!?

[@meedily]

If you didn't have epilepsy before watching this...you do now.

[@MacMan2152]

I wish I could experience this first-hand.

[@timmbrockmann959]

7:44 nice with the police sirens in the background

[@lotusluciditys3rdrealm]

This would be a epileptic's worse nightmare.

[@Sk8rboy420]

great job capturing this.

”…spectacular, trippy and fun…the transfinite is definitely something to see and experience. Sublime spectacle.” -The New York Times “Rocks the senses…the Drill Hall…has lately become a playground for artists with outsized imaginations.” -Financial Times “...a physical manifestation of information in its rawest form.” -Time Out NY ”…an extreme and elaborate visual and sonic environment.” -New York Magazine

[@NYC10011Chelsea]

Another reason why I love NYC. You never get bored there.

[@kolomgorov]

I would love to experience this!

I wonder what the light bill looks like

[@Johan_Lubbers]

I had the same association! Love them both!

[@kissmeraas]

Yeah, this happened to my projector last month. Luckily I paid for the extended warranty, so it's all fixed now.

[@motherohmy]

Would luv to see it in the real someday, fav study music

[@Kyrindattara]

[@udomatthiasdrums5322]

[@Deloreansyk]

This is the greatest thing I've ever seen.

Yo DJ Ryo, I got 6 1/4 seizures.

[@temporarybrainloss]

this video would've been really awesome, if the camera was in a fixed position, but it's still great though

Reply if Big Bang Data in London brought you here.

Almost, Love is Murder by Al Ross in London brought me here in 2020

[@MonokelJohn]

Are you asking for the name of an institution that would teach you to do and think the same as this specific artist? 1. It doesn't exist, and never will (and never should). 2. I would aim for creating art that reflects what's in my own mind.

[@Mum2Boys]

too bad being in it would give you a headache at the same time.

[@micheldonda3474]

Glitch genre is a boomer shit. It's a very norrowminded category. It's born in 80's, since then artists like Coil, Halfler Trio, Ryoji Ikeda, Alva noto and many artists did everything about it. It's consumed and it's boring to see newbies are trying to copy them...

[@DnaNaz]

This is cool for epileptic ppl.

[@rebelliouskfc7267]

the song nearly has my real name.... (bad English :3)
