about

In mathematics and physics, a scalar field associates a scalar value to every point in a space. The scalar may either be a mathematical number or a physical quantity. In this series of works the scalar is represented by the viewer within space and time.

Scalar Field (9a00ff, ff6600, ff0066, fe0000) is composed of two elements, an audio-visual piece and an accompanying PDF booklet. The audio-visual piece represents two forms of oscillation patterns, visual and sonic, while the booklet explores all the possible color pairings. Also included are wallpapers for a variety of devices.
