C4btä

C4btä is a conceptual artistic project exploring the intersection of biological processes and digital representation. The project often manifests through mixed-media installations that incorporate living organisms alongside interactive digital components. These elements are designed to respond to each other, creating a dynamic and evolving environment that challenges viewers' perceptions of nature and technology.

The core of C4btä lies in its examination of data, both biological and digital. It seeks to find parallels between the genetic code of living things and the binary language of computers, suggesting that both are forms of information that can be interpreted, manipulated, and even corrupted. The artworks frequently employ biofeedback mechanisms, allowing audience interaction to influence the growth or behavior of biological elements, which in turn alters digital projections or soundscapes.

Artists associated with C4btä, whose identities are often obscured or presented as collective entities, aim to foster a dialogue about artificial life, synthetic biology, and the ethical implications of blurring the lines between the organic and the artificial. The aesthetic of C4btä is typically characterized by a blend of organic textures and sterile, digital interfaces, creating a sense of both familiarity and alienation. The project has been presented in various international galleries and art festivals, often sparking discussion and debate about the future of life and technology.
