The Eternal Return, pre-Hispanic Interactions
🏆 Award of Distinction · Prix Ars Electronica 2022
“The Eternal Return, pre-Hispanic Interactions” by Cristhian Ávila received an Award of Distinction in the Interactive Art category of the Prix Ars Electronica 2022.
The Eternal Return is an art installation that seeks to impact on the private and collective imaginary using 3D impressions from pre-Hispanic musical instruments that are “played” again by the wind with technological assistance. The intention is to hear random interpretations of someone else's past.
