Role: Composition (web audio), sound design and web app development

Focusing on infrastructure for future networks of care, Forum is an installation and web application by artist Jelena Viskovic inspired by the ReUnion.network*.

Playing on the public/private aspects of fountains and indoor bath culture, the installation is both a “discrete leisure” and public space that features a salt crystallization process, sculpturally marking a local space-time relation. Visitors are invited to interact with this process through a web application as they become part of a network of users connected through shared space and distributed time.

*ReUnion is an initiative that proposes an ecosystem for collective well-being through P2P care agreements and relationship-driven cryptocurrency in response to society’s atomization.
