Cantus Arcticus: Installation by Bruce Munro
About the project:
Cantus Arcticus was inspired by the shimmering curtains of the Northern Lights and by a piece of music of the same name, by the Finnish composer Einohujani Rautavaara (b.1928), which in turn was inspired by the landscape and bird song of the Arctic tundra. It is composed of 15 abstract bird forms rendered in curtains of glowing fibre optic occupying the Coach House floor. Light will cascade from above each piece, casting soft pools that change colour in response to Rautavaara’s music, which will be playing in the space.

Strange Attractors by Chaotic Atmospheres
The darkest art known as Chaos Theory is perfectly embodied in the form of its strange attractors: vast looping trajectories of variables that, when plotted, conjure gorgeous yet insidiously disruptive patterns. Chaotic Atmosphere’s Math: Rules series pays tribute to the beautiful form of chaos and its inevitable collapse of all our efforts to predict it.
