The kaleidoscope of the eternal now is a dance of memories, where forgetfulness and the rhythm of the ordinary unravels and registers within intensities, regularities, intermittences, urgencies and small vibrations. Through music and generative visuals, an atmosphere of the familiar and the unusual is weaved and unraveled, through stimuli that evoke melancholy images about an ephemeral present, which is breaking down as we traverse and explore it. The memory of the now is distorted into a bittersweet mix of noise, digital corruptions, samples and algorithms. In light of current events, these little snapshots of an ordinary day have gain new significance and relevance, they have become an archive of a pre-Covid normality. Being able to virtually explore these places in its three-dimensionality, brings them to life as fragments of shifting memories that travel within dimensions and temporalities imbued in magic realism, melancholy and uncertainty.
