REPLICATIO x MISK
Truth—Perception—Memory
This living computational artwork investigates sacred geometry through three cognitive phases. Truth progresses from invisible to visible: ASCII characters (invisible computational structure) transform into cloud points (silicon consciousness bridging digital and physical), which emerge as tension points (geometric nodes), finally connected by lines following mathematical envelope patterns. From invisible, pure, to visible and already interpreted. Perception transforms these through four contemplative levels, each containing four stages of interpretation, emotional feeling, memory creation, or destruction, exploring how human consciousness imperfectly interprets objective reality through progressive transformation by accumulating or forgetting.
Memory manifests as infinite video, patterns continuously morphing in never-repeating sequences of creation and dissolution. Throughout the exhibition, four pen plotters generate new interpretations while video displays digital memory in perpetual transformation. Each pattern represents a moment in ongoing meditation between human spiritual understanding and computational capability, never complete, always becoming. Building upon architectural training and the REPLICATIO series (Paris, Art Basel, Saatchi Gallery), this work asks: Can algorithmic systems develop authentic languages for expressing the sacred? Not through imitation, but by discovering mathematical principles underlying fourteen centuries of Islamic geometric tradition, bridging historical mastery with computational innovation. Inspired by pioneers Vera Molnár, Sol LeWitt, Nima Nabavi, Lulwah Al Homoud, and historical Islamic scholars.
