Superposition is the basis of quantum physics: the observable existence of any particle is the response to one or more external stimuli. The very state in which a particle exists depends on how it is observed. Starting from the research carried out together with Dr. Marian Zamfirescu (Head of the Center for Advanced Laser Technologies, within the National Institute for Laser, Plasma and Radiation Physics – INFLPR) and drd. Vlad Toma (research assistant at INFLPR), this project is inspired by scientific concepts: superposition, entanglement and spin, the uncertainty principle and the anthropic principle or Hilbert spaces.
Affective particles is a cognitive and sensory experiment, which encourages the discovery of quantum effects transposed into the macro world through a performative installation combining contemporary art and science, that gathers modular silver-based holograms, experimental film, performance and music, into one collective work.
