Idea

The essence of the project was in mixing some of my life experiences and topics I find exciting. Once I read an essay on cybernetics, reports by Wiener and his theories on the transmission of information between living beings and machines being identical (there’s a cycle of codification, de-codification, re-feeding, and learning). These theories attempt to understand the communication and control of the machine, living beings, and social groups from the analogies with electronic devices. In summary, they claim that what separates a man from a machine is a mere topic of semantics.

This was what sparked the interest in taking out my art tools and beginning to speculate about giving this idea a new kind of meaning. I imagined our world in the future where science, religion, and nature would coexist.

In this character design, our subject did not stop being spiritual. Even though she’s cyber-augmented, the subcultural clothes are just a form to express myself and it’s another topic I also happen to like.
