“Eflomeric”
Maria Moshchenskaya and Elina Zazulya

Audiovisual Installation
From humanity's beginnings, people have sought to understand the world around them. In the pre-scientific era, myths explained natural phenomena. The Eflomeric installation explores this relationship by combining ancient myths with modern technology.

Using neural networks, the artists created digital ephemeral flora based on ancient Slavic myths about the fern flower, a plant that supposedly blooms only once a year on the summer solstice. This project uses neural networks to create the impossible, blending ancient myths with modern technology to create a synthetic, responsive space.
