The Crystal series is an active research. Exploring crystallization techniques trough experimental processes I am creating sculptures that aim to connect energy, matter and consciousness.
P. 5
Crystals are a joint that ar ticulate energy, matter and consciousness both conceptually and technically. They store information, connect the sub atomic, the atomic and the macroscopic world; they transform
energy (like silicon crystal solar panels, transforming solar light into electricity). Through the Crystal project sculptures I search the way to erase the lines of the fragmented consciousness and the fragmented being.

So far the crystal series reflect on how the livings oscillate, such as piezoelectric crystals like quartz. How time measurement is made as a bodily function and how this ideas are transported into objects like wristwatches. In all this sculptures crystals have grown in the place, shape and color you see them. The matter and its own energy express itself.

Patterns Participative performance, sound art, transmission arts 30 minutes Victor PĂŠrez-Rul, Arne Boon The Netherlands, 2010
Patterns is a collaboration with the Dutch technological artist Arne Boon. With an interaction research axis and a soundscape (and its relation to space and repetition) thesis, this transmission arts participative performance spreads a live soundscape through space with the help of a wireless mobile sound system. This multilayered experience allows the public to experiment a fragmented spoken word narrative related to physical actions, a dynamic soundscape and aural spacialization.

Constelaciones Intervened piano, electro-crystallization, fluorescence, cow skull, quartz. Mexico, 2014
Constelaciones is an intervention commissioned by the Mexican organization Crescendi. A complete piano was subjected to an electrocrystallization process, growing tin dendrite crystals over the instrument surface. It also glows in the dark as a window to cosmic firmament; a fractal universe that links the micro and macrocosm.

Historia de la Eternidad sound installation: synthesis, concrete music, field recordings, sampling Mexico, 2014
A public version of the sound installation Historia de la Eternidad. Historia de la Eternidad is a sonic universe composed by tens of tracks randomly triggered by independent systems. The tracks search the universality of the mind and the eternal return of a finite universe in matter/ content but infinite in cycles. Historia de la Eternidad happens on the installation given space; it merges there and brings to light the microscopic but unavoidable probabilities of exact repetition.
