In(Visible) Energy
2024
In(visible) Energy is an experimental installation at the Mies van der Rohe Pavilion, created in collaboration with artists, scientists, and engineers. Fabricated at Bartlett’s B-Made workshop, the piece explores the four fundamental forces of the universe and speculates on consciousness as a potential fifth.
The accompanying sound installation, by Sandy Davis, Júlia Pallarès, and Bernat Ginot, unfolds in three movements. Binaural frequencies guide meditative reflection; electromagnetic fields are made audible through visitor interaction; and low-frequency waves ripple through the pavilion’s pool, rendering sound physically visible. Merging architecture, physics, and sonic experimentation, In(visible) Energy reimagines perception as a force in itself.
