Cybernetics, the Living and the City is an immersive installation articulating a CGI short film to eight holographic propellers. The short film shows how our relationship to life and nature has been built, from the garden art of the Renaissance to contemporary eco-design projects. The installation shows the determining role of computer science and climate modeling technologies in the adjustment of our outlook on the living.

During the 1940s and 1950s, a techno-scientific movement was born: cybernetics. It played a decisive role in the emergence of a new representation of the world, based on concepts derived from thermodynamics. The sciences of information and complexity, which it gave rise to, have completely reshaped ecology.
Cybernetics, the Living and the City shows from this first impulse how our relationship to the living and its integration in urban spaces have been transformed by computational technologies. The work is articulated around a 30-minute CGI short film, augmented by videos broadcast by eight holographic propellers, located on either side of the video projection.
The animated film recaptures the recent history of eco-design and environmental renovation projects in a broader perspective concerning the art and history of gardens, from the Renaissance to the present day, showing what specific twist new technologies have given to the way we collectively think about living beings and the landscapes they inhabit.
