"Strutture Dissipative" is a framework of experiments dealing with the notions of emergence and complexity.
I was inspired by the thoughts of Ilya Prigogine, a chemist and researcher at Solvey Institute in Bruxelles who in the '70 studied the behaviors of complex systems -as such as fluids in the thermodinamic laws- and noted how from aparentely chaotic and instable systems order and stability can emerge.
His seminal work is been not only used in the exact science fields but also extended to social sciences phenomena and helped the rise of a kind of complexity studies in the '70-'80, leading to the recent speculations obout a deep ecology aproach and a paradigm where the human and his technology urges to seek new ways to be in equilibrium in his surrounding environment.
In technical terms I am trying to merge particle system and granular synthesis techniques (with max/msp/jitter) in order to develop an AV tool to be used for live media performances as well as genearative video works.
