The kinetic light installation The Mirror of Waves accompanying the Belgium presidency of the Council of the EU is an organic and poetic metaphor for society: a ballet of differences.

Monolith YW
Kinetic sculpture

The kinetic sculpture Monolith YW by German artist Andreas Lutz deals with the origin of where language and communication is created from: primal thoughts. The sculpture depicts the abstract process of the inner monologue of a self-conscious machine. With an expressional system of 25 transitionless states (the abstract language model), the sculpture is constantly in the process of creating formal consistent expressions, the primal thoughts. Vicarious for the subsequent process of evaluating this internal conflict, two juxtaposed white light sources illuminate independently the original expressions from opposite directions.
