Cory Arcangel, '🌊, 💨 & 🔥'

A colorful, aquatic scene of abstracted coral and seaweed made up of blue, red, purple, orange, and yellow organic forms.

In a sly homage to the Chicago-based band Earth, Wind & Fire, Cory Arcangel's installation draws on footage of water, wind, and fire shot in Chicago, Illinois and Stavanger, Norway.

Using Cookery, a custom-built software Arcangel developed in collaboration with designer Henry Van Dusen, Arcangel manipulates his collected video footage, resulting in an animated, digitally-abstracted landscape painting. Paired with a soundscape developed in collaboration with experimental musician Hampus Lindwall, Arcangel architects a multimedia experience that is at once gleefully puzzling and oddly familiar.
