PSYCHOKINESIS

  • Piero D'Angelo
In this project I was explored the theme of Psychokinesis “a psychic ability allowing a person to influence a physical system without physical interaction.”. I started researching about people that claimed to have psychokinetic powers, but the heart of the project was to investigate what could happen in our brain if this could be possible and if not, perhaps it would be with the help of new technologies. I developed experimentations with material such as liquid latex, plastics and wire and deconstructing a computer not just to understand its mechanical process, which somehow could be compared to our brain that works as a machine, but recycling and adapting some of the parts in my samples as well, giving to them another function. What I came out with at the end of my research was a hybrid between human and machine.
