LAB

A lab unafraid of failure.

This is where our ideas first breathe. It gathers unfinished prototypes, experimental code, and whimsical imaginations.

SOMI LAB

A lab unafraid of failure.

Methodology
Open Source Culture

FLOSS

A creative pipeline based on Free Software philosophy. Experimenting with modular workflows in a Linux environment.

Prototype / Collection
Mobile Media Architecture

GRID

Breaking free from fixed canvases, art seeks out its audience. GRID is a modular architecture for mobile interactive art, and a collection of digital experiments unfolding upon it.

Prototype / Tool
Interactive Soundscape

LIVE|WIRE

Sound becomes light, the stage a canvas. LIVE|WIRE is a real-time sound visualizer empowering performers to orchestrate their own visual backdrop, transforming intimate stages into immersive synesthetic spaces.

R&D / Campaign
Ecological Monitoring

Helloo

Data-driven scenography for coexisting with the wild. Tracking movements of birdhouses and stray cats to visualize invisible ecological rhythms. A scientific yet poetic practice proposing better habitats for non-human beings.

Hardware / Community
Open Source Hardware

ARCRIX

Alchemy of sound in everyone's hands. A project exploring the essence of analog sound through open source and open hardware. ARCRIX is a technical sanctuary where anyone can sculpt their own audio instruments, and an auditory experiment unfolding on circuits.

Installation / Series
Everyday Physics Art

BARAM

A poetic experiment sublimating the physicality of the everyday into art. BARAM captures the potential of technology and art within ordinary objects. By assigning new context to familiar landscapes, it proves that our daily life is, in fact, the grandest canvas.

Workshop / Ideation
Upcycling Experience

Empty Room

New value filling an empty space. 'Empty Room' is a participatory project where anyone can experience upcycling and generate ideas to change the world. Discovering the potential of discarded things, we design concrete inspiration for a sustainable future.

Social Design
AI & Eco-Architecture

The Reflex

Reinterpreting urban 'Reflex' to protect life. Using AI to predict flight patterns and collision risks, empowering glass to signal its presence. A technical solution and social art piece where transparent walls transform into interfaces communicating with nature.

R&D / Installation
Bio-Interaction Research

WOSS/MOSS

A close observation project researching the coexistence of plants and humans. Expressing the microscopic world of moss and plants through scientific and artistic lenses.
