NOMAD brings the polar atmosphere of different TUNDRA site specific installations into randomly changing sequence of visual themes and patterns triggered by live-performed sound.
With their work they trying to swim against the tide of common misconception that perceives art made with sophisticated digital technologies closer to the entertainment industry rather than to the discourse on contemporary art. In NOMAD they follow in the footsteps of the pioneers of electronic art who in the 1960s used rudimental analogue and digital equipment to prove their audiences that the new media were oriented towards action, rather than contemplation.
Artists themselves play role of digital nomads being able to perform this piece everywhere but from the other hand tied to the specific venue where they transform it’s unique atmosphere into one sensory experience that has to be felt.
