Completed in 2007, PixFlow #2 is an interesting, generative artwork from Lab[au]. The multi-screen piece shows a vector field and moving particles/pixels shaping into flows as their density evolves. PixFlow was originally created as a permanent 11-screen installation for the Grand Casino Brussels, but the new 4-screen version is to some extent more portable. Designed as a modular system, it encloses the stripped hardware used in an elegant T-shaped Perspex casing. It runs on an ‘art-console,’ a T-shaped Plexiglas box, integrating 4 stripped screens and 4 networked computers. Four flash-cards containing operating system and executable file can be easily swapped with other cards, containing future, generative artworks of LAb[au]. The console can be wall mounted, placed horizontal on a desk or on the ground, or placed vertical. I have no idea if they are offering this installation, but it would simply look superb in my living room.163348
