Cos/Sin

Cos/Sin is a commission on the occasion of '100 years of Bauhaus', turning the second floor of the iconic Sanaa building at Essen's Zollverein cultural heritage into an abstract and minimalist audiovisual experience. Several perfect circles are projected on the walls, some of the modulated at times with a noise function, adding complexity to the perfect minimalis figures.

The title refers to the trigonometric functions which are the basis both for the theoretical construction of an ideal circle, as well as for the practical calculations to create them in the installation. The size, color, and texture of each circle, and its location inside the room is controlled by an algorithmic computer program, which also creates the synchronised sonic events.
