Building a city - living in a city

Since March 2018, I have been working at Debora Arango Art School as the leader of a research project that aims to produce a 360-degree ambisonic audiovisual project.

One of the main tasks I am devoted to at the moment is to build a 25-block set where the story happens. It has been quite a significant challenge that has demanded many hours. At the moment, I am doing the final adjustments in order to be able to render the final product.

I have wanted to start posting about this project for a long time, as it has raised many questions regarding my practice. The first thing that I want to point out is that it has changed the way I see my surroundings. Nowadays, every time I go out, I start to make connections between digital models and real building materials.

Now, I pay more attention to my surroundings and constantly think about how to represent real life in the digital world. More importantly, I have started to wonder how building

An entire neighbourhood connects with my previous work.

I also started to pay more attention to video games, especially those that depict big environments.
