Under the direction of Master Pablo Bocchimuzzi, you can enjoy a selection of musical pieces that seek to open a timeless and interdisciplinary dialogue between great master composers of the 20th century. The choice of these pieces reflects the innovative and avant-garde spirit of the proposal, the interactive link between the different disciplines and the marking of a break for the different times in which they were composed.

what is the work about
“Machine Hallucinations: Coral” is one of the most important works in the history of digital art. At the crossroads between art, science and technology, this three-dimensional work presented for the first time on the beach at the Faena Hotel during Art Basel Week 2021, in Miami, combines data science, digital painting, audio, performance and immersive installation.
It is the result of ongoing research on the aesthetics of information, based on the collective visual memory of the urban and natural environment. Refik Anadol and his team, collected 300 million data points focused on nature themes, used 1,742,772 coral images from publicly available social media platforms, and processed them with machine learning classification models.
As the mind-machine begins to make its own connections between data points and “hallucinates” about alternative coral shapes and colors, the data universe expands into a dormant cosmos in which fluid dynamics become the main inspiration of Anadol’s artistic creativity. “Machine Hallucinations: Coral” represents the work carried out by TheReefLine organization that tries to protect all species of coral reefs around the world. In addition, it is the first work of the artist created on the Algorand blockchain, which has a negative carbon emission.
“We are very excited to be able to support artbag and the City Government in this immersive and unique experience that begins at the Teatro Colón. The City of Buenos Aires is the epicenter of digital innovation and the capital of art at the same time, That is why we cannot think of a better place to exhibit the masterpiece of an artist as prestigious as Refik,” said David García, CEO of the investment fund Borderless Capital, collector of Refik’s work and main sponsor of the event.
“Being part of this historic event and collaborating with artbag, City Government and Borderless so that the public can enjoy the most influential digital artist in the world is an honor for us. At Ripio we have the mission of being the gateway to the crypto world, and without a doubt this experience reflects exactly that. In our essence is the vision that Blockchain technology brings alternatives and innovative tools to all people, expanding the possibilities of inclusion. Therefore, we are very excited to support this unique action in Latam”, Sebastián Serrano, CEO and co-founder of Ripio.
