BACTERIOPHAGE
Bacteriophage (Greek: bacteria eater) is the ancestor of all animals, a virus that attacks bacteria by injecting its DNA into them. The genetic information multiplies within the body of the bacteria until the new viruses fill the bacterial shell and burst out. Like the route of distribution of information in the world, from individual to individual by ongoing replication and transfer, the primordial survival instinct activates an invasive mechanism that is both aggressive and vital: once the information is passed on, the original organism dies, leaving little parasites - its clones – to carry on the mission.
The work investigates the process of domination through hacking the immediate surroundings, through a cycle of invasion and penetration. The installation involves a web-based feedback system: a circle of used computers connected in a network, placed in a ceremonial-intimate situation. Each audio signal that penetrates a computer is transferred immediately to the neighboring computer, and so the signal passes through the circle until it takes over the sound content. The computers play the information received through the electro-acoustic elements which diffuse the sound space. Viewers inject sound into one of the computers and witness how it is gradually diffused across the entire network.
