«Life is not binary. That’s why I’m hesitant to call this ‹alive›. There’s no clear line, as much as we would love it to be.» — Kate Adamala, Synthetic Biologist
For three months, Casey Reas will inhabit virtual.hek.ch as a remote studio, creating a new sketch for an artwork each week. Every Friday, he will create a small watercolor painting and then translate it into a score for his software agents to move through a synthetic environment. This work is an extension of his Process Series 2004–2010. It pushes his ideas about ecology and emergence into new territory.
