Projects

Inspired by the lifecycle of the Turritopsis dohrnii jellyfish, the work proposes returning to a fundamental question: What is the price of immortality?

The project consists of a speculative interface that allows emotion-based interaction with dynamic spaces and responsive environment, using the Japanese academic system of evaluation as a reference.

"The unveiled city" consists in an interactive videoinstallation and data visualization system. With the interaction it is unveiled the most recurrent motives in thousands of images from Instagram, associated with Tokyo by hashtags. A text in a way of caption shows the description of the images, which is used as a criterion by which it is selected the images to unveils.

"Prolongation to the infinite" consists in large-scale parametric wood sculptures where I interpret the Cuban norms of construction related with the calculation of temporal wood structures (NC 0053-179, 1988), inspiring by the Japanese tradition of wooden framework systems.

Personalized portraits obtained with the average of the characteristics face expressions of people from all over the world I met during my stay as a Research Student in Japan.

The Project consisted in five exercises of collaboration (essays) that used the photography as a conceptual motive according to the rules: Photographic process, Seriality, No Post-production, Value as Information and Present.

Traditional mechanisms of social investigation are impossible to use in order to understand the functionality of alternative social media in an offline context. The project proposes what we decide to call an “Offline Social Media” study based in the network of distribution for Cuban independent magazines.

"¡Descargas de todo un poco" is the result of more than five years trying to work with technology, in a context with a very little access to Internet.

The project is the first step in a series, where I use optimization algorithms and computer modeling to continue Sandu Darie’s investigation about the spatial distribution of structures and variable modular systems.

AgarTG Teams (Mod of Agar.io) automatic match where the Cuban artists of my generation try to devour each other.

Video installation compound by several screens playing at the same time a capture with signal interference, of a fragment of the Cuban National Television News in the stellar emission of January 27, 2017.

Interactive video setup where is generated an image of the viewer using a dataset of thousands of pictures of Havana taken from Instagram.

The project is compound by a predictive analysis about how would behave my economy in a year if I dedicate myself to paint and all the materials that I need to do it.

The artwork consists in an interactive installation where we present AgarTG Teams (Agar.io MOD) in controlled spaces of socialization, to reproduce in lower scale the informal networks of videogames that join in a clandestine way thousands of people in Cuba.

The Project consists in a computational procedure that allows measuring the tension between the social ideal behavior, and the expression of the citizen will.

Software procedure that allows transforming the human voice to visual patterns, overlapping over the Hilbert curve, the result of the spectral analysis of the voice capture obtained by means of the discrete Fourier transform.

Debugging nauta consists in a citizen investigation about the errors of functionality in Nauta service, what was the only way of public access to Internet in Cuba.

The images of pictures in the National Museum of Fine Arts of Cuba (Cuban Art) database are interpreted as a bar of color lines organized according to different criteria of chromatic variation (red, blue or green recurrence, tint, brightness and saturation). Afterwards the software process each tone and project them into the space as musical notes, after the library SoundCipher version: Beta release 10 for Processing

The Project pretends showing the pictures as they are understood by the digital technology: as generic data. That way it is deleted the entropy, what is to say every cultural value associated to the image.

Interpretation of a Borgian idea about a possible infinite universe compound of infinite subdivision of itself.

DEATH-SUDOKU is a version of the “Sudoku” game, where the user accesses through the game functionality to data collected in a decease registry of a certain Hospital in Havana, in the year 2012.

Sokoban style game where the users manipulate a character made of numbers that correspond with the percent earned by the Cuban shops, according to the amount of CIMEX, group that include around 80 stately enterprises.

A sound registry of the places of Havana which I have considerably related with is shown in the space in a way of light and color. In a tiny LCD display it is included an inscription with the date, place and time where the capture was made.

Tu voz es la voz de otros [Your voice is the others’ voice] is an interactive installation and performance. The user is invited to speak on a microphone which instead of allowing hear his voice, reproduces in a disposition of 16 independent channels of audio, the voices of those who have spoken before him. While the user is speaking his voice is included in the collection to be heard when other user speak on the microphone, taken his place and continuing the cycle.

Compilation in a digital blog format, of my first three years of work using software as a medium for artistic expression.

The Project consisted in manage an automatic dialing service (robocall) through e-mail, for my family to call in regular intervals to my mobile, which was located in a gallery in Cuba. In the final show it was included screenshots of a selection of e-mails we send each other where we talk about the work.

Version of the Mineswiper game where, with the interaction, it is unveiled the manifesto where Cuba proclaims its negative to sign the prohibition for the use of personal mines (Ottawa, Canada, 1997).
