Anemone Actiniaria Anemone Actiniaria Anemone Actiniaria
David Pirrò, Hanns Holger Rutz*
Anemone Actiniaria is an algorithmic improvisation duo founded by Hanns Holger Rutz and David Pirrò in 2014. In it, they couple computer systems and introduce semi-autonomous agents. As artistic research project, the seemingly well-defined concept of algorithm is subject to a new reading based on material agencies. Mutual observation and overwriting is initiated between our systems, Wolkenpumpe and rattle, rooted in physical modelling and in the generation of parametric models based on machine learning. This is inspired by the notion of an emergent new machine through ‘orientation’ and ‘composition’ as outlined by Heinz von Foerster and Dirk Baecker, whereby the functions of operators and operands of the formerly separated systems begin to vacillate.
Anemone Actiniaria performed in various venues including the xCoAx 2016 Conference in Bergamo and the the BEAST FEaST 2017 in Birminghem (upcoming). The duo has also been invited for a residency at ZKM | Institut für Musik und Akustik (IMA) in 2015 where it contributed to a concert of the EASTN European Art-Science-Technology Network.
