The projected body is generated through fields of density and viscosity that imply the merging of ‘inner’ and ‘outer’ space disregarding boundaries and hence allowing for a surgeon to interface between actual/virtual and densities of matter/space. The body is dissected, projected and analysed in a gradient of density fields generated from the MRI scans.
SI-02 argues that the predefined perceptive boundary of the body is no longer relevant: space requires a far more fluid gradient. It advocates a conceptual shift from a closed system to a ‘gradient field’; from confined territories to density-driven viscous states. Losing the boundary in favour of densities, the idea of territory and defined space itself needs to be rethought and adjusted, modified to allow a broader spectrum of spatial properties to emerge.Virtual organs are redesigned as syncretic transplants, exploring a visceral state of fluctuation between real and virtual flesh components.
