This installation depicts the properties of a variety of types of fluid, including the interaction between everything from the delicate flow of water to its turbulence, with the sensing of the undulations of plants. It is an interface that interactively connects the unconscious, precursory phenomena of plants and humans.

What makes stars, like our sun, so wonderful is that the radiance of nuclear fission is converted into a sustainable flow of energy on our green planet.
In plants, this is carried out in an orderly manner by the green leaves, the roots that absorb nutrients from the soil, and the seeds packed with information for giving birth to clones. But what is even more interesting is the steady flow of energy through animals. In animals, this flow of energy can actually be felt. They pulsate, and even give off heat.

This tedium and motionless state are standard states in the greater part of atoms and space. While most substances in space have slid into a frozen ground state, a very small portion has succeeded in capturing waves of energy to rise to the surface and dance.
We are making steady progress in transitioning from the world of solid, heavy atoms to an intangible world in which we value the non-physical.

Imagine a silent, homogenous state with no light.
The divergence of space imparted inclination to matter.
Energy, like water under gravity, is unable to collect until the difference is annulled.
“Natural scenes” are created as the result of the effort to maintain this difference through resistance to entropy.

A powerful fluctuation in vorticity is one of the characteristics of turbulence, and another important property is that it is three-dimensional.
As for the structure of vortices, Leonardo da Vinci in his final years devoted himself enthusiastically to research on vortices by drawing sketches of them.
In imagining the helical structure on which life is based, created through repeated chemical reactions on Earth in primeval times, the dispersed structure on which life is founded is believed to have been created through the complex exchanging of energy between the three states of water, as a solid, liquid and gas. A calculation that continues endlessly is similar to water. Truly interesting
calculations are often found close to the points of phase transition between a solid, liquid and gas.

Live organisms mark the passage of time, and their internal states are constantly changing in response to the situations and phenomena they encounter in the environment. How can the information system found in organisms spontaneously appear in nature? How does a material system acquire the ability to handle information? And how does the ability to calculate spring up within a non-biological system as emergent attributes.


“We have never seen a living system, so it is the relationship between nature, information and
people that we must study.” –Gregory Bateson


When Charles Darwin was researching the theory of natural selection, he was puzzled by the “eye.” He realized the difficulty in explaining how it evolved gradually. This was because the retina, lens and pupil of the eye are so perfectly evolved that the slightest deviation would result in something that was completely useless.

When the same pattern appears from nowhere on numerous occasions, such as the whirlpool that is formed by molecules of water when draining a bathtub, it is believed to be inevitable. The evolution of the eye, like a camera, is like a miracle even if it only happens once, but it has happened numerous times in the history of the Earth.
These patterns, like other original patterns that are recreated, are perceived by the brain unconsciously. That is because as fellow organisms, they are founded on internal inertia found in the complexity of the ability to self-organize.

The incredible optical structure that is like a “biological camera” is the result of convergent evolution, found in all species from octopuses to slugs, marine annelids, jellyfish and spiders.
Humans relied on ingenuity over several thousand years to eventually succeed in creating a practical, artificial camera-like eye. The way different types of technology change over time, like evolved designs, leaps of innovation, or the emergence of a system adapted to complexity, is similar to the pattern of the systematic evolution of species.
Life is a self-generating information system. David Bohm, the physicist, stated that science of the future will be similar to art. The original meaning of the word “theory” was to “look at.”

Wherein lies the physics of our minds?
In modern-day physics, it is important to note that gravity can be considered the geometric effect of warped space. Whirlpools of light originally exist in projective space in which light is seen as a spot.
Here, if we were to forget the existence of the three-dimensional space of the real world, and focus on just the “mirror,” one would realize that it is a strange world in which the “shadows” created by the light of objects exists.

Expanding the geometry (projective geometry) of light to a complex number converts it into a “mirror that projects nature” that is completely different from the dimension that our brains can comprehend.
In the world of math and physics, this world of mirror images is called a “complex plane (Gauss Plane),” consisting of a real axis and an imaginary axis, and it is formed by the “world of negative dimensions (haptic data),” which are indispensable in understanding space.

Turbulence (mirror) is a system of discernment (unbundling) found in nature capable of breaking things down into their most primitive elements, and it is regarded as a massive circuit for the cognitive function.


“Our minds are probably characteristics stemming from a certain strange and surprising property of a physical principle that controls the real world we live in, rather than just the characteristics of some kind of algorithm run by something that is the target of the structure of classical physics.”
– Roger Penrose


Consciousness began when the brain acquired the ability, the simple ability, to tell a story without using words.
Beneath the conscious mind is an underground cavity, and this cavity is divided into numerous levels. Certain levels consist of images (underlying nastic movements) that the mind has not turned its attention to.

Research based on experiments has revealed that the processing of spatial information and patterned information is carried out mainly in the right half of the brain.
The right hemisphere excels in sorting each part of matters into a pattern, recognizing the locations of dots and identifying numbers within patterns, or perceiving audio patterns such as melodies, as in a Kohs 3D pattern inspection.

Put bluntly, when the mind tries to process the information it has perceived of its own accord, everything is already embodied in the sensory chaos that has existed from the beginning. Phenomena are reality, and the mind is what we sense directly, while consciousness is a device that generates illusions because of its elaborateness.

Information is a measure of the unpredictability of a certain message. In other words, it is a measure of the level of surprise we experience from it. Civilization led by consciousness deprives humans of heterogeneity and contradiction, and tends to lower the quality of information experience.
“Strangers” and “others” may seem similar, but they are not necessarily the same. Here, we will refer to the issue related to the phenomenon of everyday “strangers” spreading to extraordinary “others” as the “theory of alterity.”

“A characteristic of the media, which came about at the same time as the rise of contemporary semiotics was the ‘writing’ of text by machines.
Here, ‘writing’ refers to the text of technology, or to be more specific, the recording of ‘the passage of sound and light.’
Until the age of printed books, everyday life in the civilized world was based on the reading and handwriting of text.
‘Text written by technology’ is very distinct from printed text. It is characterized by the fact that it cannot be read by people.
This does not mean it is an illusion, but it testifies to the gap between human cognitive capabilities and the capabilities of machines.
It is this ‘cognitive gap,’ which integrates human perception and creates consciousness. This is exactly what Walter Benjamin referred to as ‘the age of mechanical reproduction.’

This gap is similar to the state in which it is difficult to distinguish and impossible to determine the difference between culture, dreams and reality cultivated by humans regarding dreams.
Dreams lack the ‘here and now’ experience. In other words, the forgetting, recalling or interpreting of dreams are carried out upon starting out from a state of nonexistence, rather than being a conscious act.

That is why people have been able to interpret the meaning of dreams in a variety of ways. The interpretation of dreams formed an important part of reality. This was also related to the symbols of primitive people, like the cave paintings of Lascaux or Chauvet, or it has to be connected at a fundamental level to the question of what artificial intelligence is. We have reached the stage where humans and machines can communicate through symbols, or in other words, the ‘overlapping symbols used by humans and machines’ have reached a level of physical contact.”

“I consider consciousness (the nerve system) to be a functional capability. For example, it is related to the contraction of the wave function caused by the effect of gravity. At the core of this idea is ‘non-computability.’
The physical principles we know today are all computable types.
In other words, we have to step outside the image portrayed by contemporary physics.
Einstein’s theory of general relativity and quantum mechanics have yet to be integrated, that is, the creation of quantum gravity (quantum brain) has yet to succeed and it is one of the most important issues in physics.

The important thing is that the warping of space affects the curvature of space-time, and it fundamentally, albeit subtly, affects the principles of quantum mechanics themselves.
This is one of the climaxes during the process of self-organization within the media of experiences like the mind, and this image overlaps with the ‘occasions of experience’ concept of Whitehead.”
